The principal function of the Commission on Revenue Allocation is to make recommendations concerning the basis for the equitable sharing of revenue raised by the national government between the national and county governments; and among the county governments with the  aim of promoting and giving effect to the criteria of equitable share set out in Article 203 (1) of the constitution, defining and enhancing the revenue sources of the national and county governments and encourage fiscal responsibility. It therefore significantly determines the county resource envelop set out in the CFSP and the ceilings of both recurrent and development estimates. The county executive and county assembly recently appealed to CRA for consideration of a special conditional grant for personal emoluments to address the huge wage bill crisis resulting from increments by SRCs circulars and CBAs for devolved health staff.
