Abstract

The 2014 Fiscal strategy paper is the first one to be prepared under the devolved government of Tharaka Nithi County. It addresses economic growth through optimal utilization of resources which in turn advance the government’s agenda of economic growth strategy elaborated in the County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP), while providing detailed plans to enhance and promote a dynamic and competitive government. The three main pillars of the County Integrated development Plan provide (i) Accelerating economic growth; (ii) Enhancing equity and poverty reduction; and (iii) Improving governance. The expenditure policy framework in the medium term aims at ensuring efficiency and effectiveness in the implementation of our development policies. As part of efforts to link policy with budgeting, reforms in the expenditure and financial management will be deepened, and growth of nonpriority expenditures will be contained in order to create fiscal space for financing priority policy areas such as the social sectors, agriculture and physical infrastructure, which are key to sustainable economic growth and development.
