Embu County Annual Development Plan 2024/2025

Abstract

The County Annual Development Plan (ADP) 2024 is prepared in accordance with Article 220(2) of the Constitution of Kenya. Further, The County Government Act, 2012 under sections 104, 105, 106 and 107 underscore that County Governments are responsible for integrated development planning by ensuring that there is proper linkage between county and national plans. The Public Finance Management act (PFMA), 2012 under section 126 requires that county governments prepare a development plan in accordance with article 220 (2) of the Constitution. The Annual Development Plan 2024 contains development priorities that have been identified for implementation during the FY 2024/2025. The plan was developed through a consultative process that is all-inclusive and in line with the priorities outlined in the County Integrated Development Plan (2023-2027). This plan will form the basis for the development of County Fiscal Strategy Paper 2024/25 and the budget estimates for FY 2024/25. This ADP outlines the priorities contained in the CIDP 2023-2027 with a clear vision to achieving a prosperous county with equal opportunities for all. It is my expectation that increased participation by the various stakeholders through the identification, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of projects and programmes will help address the myriad of challenges facing the people of Embu County in order for them to realize their dreams and aspirations.
