County Government of Makueni
Abstract/ Overview
The policy has been prepared in response to the increased need for evidence based decision making, planning, policy making and resource allocation. The policy is in line with the Constitution of Kenya 2010, the County Governments Act, 2012 and the Public Finance Management Act, 2012. All the legal frameworks recognize the need for statistics and data to inform development planning and decision making at the county level. It is against this background that the statistics policy has been developed in response to the need. The need for timely, reliable and quality statistics in the county development process cannot be overemphasized. Data is a key driver in the development trajectory and thus the basis for developing the statistics policy. The policy will be useful in establishing County Statistics Directorate which will be critical in the delivery of reliable statistics. Some of the key interventions proposed in the policy include: empowering data producers and data users on the need for reliable and quality data, establishing institutional mechanisms to produce quality data, strengthening Citizen Generated Data (CGD), raising awareness on the role of statistics, capacity building the county statistics team to provide quality data, and; adoption of technology in management of statistics. The successful implementation of this policy will involve all stakeholders to play their rightful role.
