Teddy Mwambire is the Speaker, Kilifi County Assembly
By: John Kariuki
Kilifi County Speaker Teddy Mwambire has taken a moment to share with us his thoughts after Treasury’s disbursement of funds to the counties.
Hon. Teddy notes:
“With the current Public Finance Management Act, funds received at this time in the counties might not be utilized hence the national treasury will claim that counties were unable to utilize funds released to them. Timely disbursements are the only remedy for effective service delivery in the devolved units.”
The National Treasury last week released Ksh.33 billion owed to counties to settle various pending bills.
Out of the said sum, Ksh.10 billion has been allotted to the National Government-Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF).
National Treasury Principal Secretary Chris Kiptoo said the funds, from the equitable revenue share of April, will enable counties to deliver key services to their constituents.
