County Government of Kajiado

Abstract

One of the most significant changes introduced to Kenya's governance framework under the constitution 2010 dispensation is the creation of 47 county governments with responsibilities in agriculture, health, trade, roads, county planning and other functions. Under the Constitution, the National and County Governments are distinct but interdependent. The County government is composed of the Governor, County Executive Committee and County Assembly. The County Government responsibilities and functions are specifically spelt out under the Fourth Schedule of the Constitution. The County Executive Committee is expected to supervise the administration and delivery of services to citizens as well as conceptualize and implement policies. The County Assembly is a legislative organ and will play an oversight role on all county public institutions including the urban areas and cities. The Constitution of Kenya 2010, County Government Act 2012, Kenya Vision 2030 and its Second Medium Term Plan (2013-2017) provide the foundation for the preparation of the first County Integrated Development Plans (CIDPs) for all the 47 counties in the Republic of Kenya. The CIDP is meant to assist the County Governments in prioritization of local socioeconomic development issues. It provides the baseline information which will guide the execution of this function.
