Overview
Devolution remains a key anchor of bringing development closer to the citizens. As devolved units move to the second term, citizens, formidable expectations about financial prudence are yet to be met. Hope therefore lies in the design of the accountability structures that will ensure social equity, service delivery and citizen engagement to deliver on every shilling spent from the tax payers’ money.

- County Governments Budget Implementation: Latest Findings from CoB Office

- Funding County Development: Is it Sufficient? (Recurrent vs Development Expenditure)
- County Debts and Projected Reduced Funding: A Case for Better Cash Flow Management

- Performance Management for County Governments
- Feedback from the FiRe Award: Major Areas of Non-Compliance and Way Forward
