Abstract

The C-ADP 2024/25 was prepared in line with the County Government Act 2012 and Public Finance Management Act 2012 that requires every county government to prepare an annual development plan. The preparation of the plan after the issuance of the Budget Circular that and is envisaged to guide the budget process for the Fiscal Year. The C-ADP presents the priorities, strategies and development programmes the county government seeks to implement in the financial year 2024/2025. The strategies and programmes outlined in the plan are anchored on the governor’s manifesto, the CIDP 2023-2027, the Bottom Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA), the Fourth Medium Term Plan (MTP IV) and the Kenya Vision 2030. Health, Water, Agriculture, Education, Infrastructure and Social Protection sub- sectors remain key major priority areas in the county socio-economic agenda. Whereas significant progress has been realized in improving health care delivery systems, the sector still face challenges related to health infrastructure, human resource capacity, sustainable health technologies and commodities and emerging diseases. This C-ADP proposes to channel more resources to completion of on-going healthcare infrastructure, and emphasis on preventive healthcare and health education to reduce the increasing disease burden and mortality rates.
