Muranga County Fiscal Strategy Paper 2014

Abstract

This fiscal strategy paper is prepared pursuant the provisions of Sec 117 of the PFM Act 2012 and is the first for Murang’a County Government. The county endeavors to continue implementing programmes that will continue to uplift the living standards of her people by implementing high impact wide effect programs and projects with a lot of focus on the devolved functions. The county realizes that resources will always be scarce and may never adequately meet our needs but programmes should be implemented in a manner that meets our county diversities and the wide geographical span. Within the year the County Government has developed systems that are meant to take services closer to the people and in a way distribute the benefits of devolution to the extent possible while at the same time safeguarding the resources by strengthening checks and reducing wastages. With good plans that are efficiently and effectively implemented the public will reap the benefit envisaged by the drafters of our constitution. It’s also important that the public play its role of participating objectively in county programmes with sincere intentions so that efforts to collect views add value. This paper forms part of a continuous process that is meant to develop a collaboration platform for our county.
