Why Laikipia Topped In County Budget Transparency Survey
Laikipia County has been ranked 2nd among the 47 Counties in an independent transparency survey by the International Budget Partnership Organization (IBP).
This Survey (CBTS) 2020 reflected an assessment of the key planning and budget documents required to be produced by counties as a source of information to the public in scrutinizing county operations.
This is part of Laikipia County's deliberate efforts to ensure that the public is well informed on its operations through unhindered access to key county plans, documents, and reports.
Laikipia has manifested itself as an open society with our rallying call being that of participative and informed decision-making for economic development.
The county has pioneered the provision of information to stakeholders through public releases of quarterly financial and audit reports and recent positive credit ratings further show that the county is breaking barriers in public sector information sharing.
