The implication of the FY2016/17Fiscal Performance on the Fiscal Responsibility Principles was as follows: -

•The County’s total expenditure on employees’ wages and benefits was higher than the required 30 percent as required by the act. The County Government is committed into bringing the proportion of the expenditure on wages down in the long term.

•The County Government will implement measures to increase revenue collections that will enhance spending on development projects hence lowering the percent of wages to the required levels

•The principles further require that 30 percent of total expenditure should be development. The county will work towards attaining the required levels by reducing recurrent and improving revenue collection to increase fiscal space for spending on development.
