Siaya County Fiscal Strategy Paper 2021

Abstract

This is the last fiscal strategy paper to implement the 2018-2022 CIDP. It has been prepared on the back drop of devastating impacts of COVID 19 on performance of the county economy. In 2019/20 and 2020/21 priority was focused on interventions aimed at mitigating the adverse impacts of COVID 19. In this regard short term service delivery interventions and infrastructural development projects that were necessary to build the capacity of the county government to manage the pandemic were developed and implemented alongside other priorities. With the pandemic now seemingly under control some of the short-term interventions have since been suspended and infrastructural development projects completed. It is therefore necessary that going forward, the county government prioritizes interventions that will not only unlock economic growth but also confer benefits to intended beneficiaries.
