The reform process has been made possible through World Bank technical support to National Treasury from the Kenya Accountable Devolution Programme (KADP). The current PFM strategy comes to an end in December 2018.
Speaking at a technical meeting held today between National Treasury officials, County officials and a World Bank team, the County Executive Committee Member for Finance Ms. Mary Nguli thanked the National Treasury for the show of confidence in Kitui county, saying County Treasuries countrywide have received immense support from them on matters of financial management. “Treasury has done very well in supporting us build the required capacity, skills and competencies and for that, we really thank you”
The reforms will enable the county become more effective and efficient in delivery of services. The other 5 counties selected are Makueni, Taita Taveta, Nakuru, Kakamega and Nyamira county. The selected counties will have a follow up meeting in mid August to refine and endorse the proposed strategy.
