Nyandarua County Fiscal Strategy Paper 2017

Abstract

TThe County Fiscal Strategy Paper (CFSP) highlights policy priorities of the County Government of Nyandarua for implementation over the medium term. The policies includes five transformative pillar strategies focusing on: (i) Continuous improvement of the infrastructural facilities to transform the County economy; (ii) Investing in quality and accessible health care services and quality education; (iii) Offering quality and accessible services to the people; (iv) Improvement in resource mobilisation for sustained development; (v) Tapping the under exploited and un exploited resources. The County is dependent on the economic performance of the globe and Kenya and is therefore hooked on the formulation and implementation of practical strategies and policies on the basis of the global and Country’s economic performance. Kenya’s economy continues to be robust and elastic, basically as a result of effective structural reforms and reliable economic policies. On the same note, Nyandarua County is operating on a generally stable macroeconomic environment appropriate for attaining the stated policy priorities and better service delivery. Thus, it is prudent to have a strong economic underpin and fiscal discipline to aid in the creation and proper utilization of resources. The CFSP outlines the MediumTerm Fiscal Framework, which offers mechanisms for entrenching sustainable growth and development for efficient service delivery in Nyandarua County. This calls for openness, transparency, accountability, responsiveness, and abiding by the rule of law to facilitate fiscal discipline and maintain macroeconomic stability.
