Abstract/ Overview
This Sessional Paper outlines the policy framework for devolution and Devolved Government in Kenya. It proposes implementation mechanisms for the devolved system of government as envisaged in the Constitution of Kenya, 2010. Consequently, it identifies the broad basic policy framework for legislation and administrative actions needed to implement· Devolved Government. It also provides for benchmarking future institutional initiatives and actions on issues related to devolution in Kenya. It conceives devolution anticipated in the CoK 2010 as the system through which Kenyans will develop robust governance and economic institutions with appropriate capacities to foster a cohesive and united country. The context and promise of Devolved Government in our national ethos, the historical and constitutional foundations of devolution in Kenya; the recommendations on strategic policy issues; the road map to the implementation process and the resource and risk management framework are documented in this Policy Paper.
