| dc.description.abstract | The Constitution 2010 ushered Kenya into two levels of Government, the National and the devolved system of governance consisting of 1 National and the 47 County Governments. It assigned exclusive and concurrent functions to the two tiers of government as provided for in Article 186 and the Fourth Schedule. The National Government is assigned national economic policy and planning as well as capacity building and technical assistance to counties, among others functions.
In line with its mandate of spearheading National and sectoral development planning, the National Treasury and Economic Planning, through State Department for Economic Planning developed guidelines for preparation of the Third-Generation County Integrated Development Plans, 2023 – 2027, in order to provide requisite universal standards for preparation of CIDPs and ensure uniformity across all the counties. The CIDP 2023-2027 took into account lessons learnt from implementation of the previous 2nd generation of CIDPs as well as emerging issues and challenges.
Kericho County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) 2023-2027 outlines policies, programs and projects for implementation in my third term administration aimed at continuing transforming lives of our citizen. It succeeds the First CIDP 2013-2017 and second CIDP 2022-2018 and carries forward the programs and projects that were not completed. It also outlines flagship projects and other priority programs and projects that were identified through a consultative process and aligned to the Governor’s Manifesto; Kenya Kwanza Bottom- up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA), Kenya Vision 2030, Medium Term Plan IV, Sustainable Development Goals, Africa Union Agenda 2063, other regional and international cooperation frameworks. | en |
