Nyamira County Programme Based Budget 2018/2019

Abstract

This is the sixth budget estimate prepared by the County Government of Nyamira. However, it is the fourth under Programme Based Budgeting (PBB) in line with the provisions of Section 12(1) of the Second Schedule of the Public Finance Management Act, 2012. The 2018/2019 Budget Estimates have been generated based on the County Fiscal Strategy Paper 2018 which took into consideration the equitable share from the national government, Grants from the national government and other international organization, the county projected own revenue and specified strategic priorities and policy goals. The Budget outlines key priority programmes to be funded in 2018/2019 and provides projected estimates for the Medium Term. To enhance efficiency and coordination the Budget has clearly defined outcomes, priority objectives, expected outputs, and performance indicators for the identified programs. However, county’s performance has been affected by emerging issues including procurement challenges as well as lack of capacity in IFMIS. To this end, the County Government continues to put in place proper mechanisms, while taking advantage of the County strengths, opportunities and key milestones achieved in the last financial year to develop building blocks that are likely to strengthen the possibility of achieving our vision.
