NAIROBI, Kenya, Apr 7 – The Criminal Justice system led by Judiciary are some of the gainers in the 2022-2023 financial budget presented in Parliament by Treasury Cabinet Secretary Ukur Yatani on Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Yatani\u2019s Sh3.3 trillion-budget, the Judiciary was allocated Sh18.9 billion which is an extra Sh1 billion from the Sh17.9 billion it received in 2021-2022 financial year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cStronger institutions and effective policy implementation and management of resources improves service delivery, transparency and accountability to enhance the oversight and legislative role of Parliament and access to justice, I propose an allocation of Sh50.2 billion to Parliament and Sh18.9 billion to the Judiciary,\u201d Yatani said. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In order to enhance the fight against corruption and accelerate smooth flow of service delivery, the Office of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations and Office of the Public Prosecutions were allocated Sh8.4 billion and Sh3.4 billion respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe shall continue to seek better public service delivery by building and sustaining strong, efficient and accountable institutions. In order to enhance good governance and scale up our fight against 77 corruption, I propose an allocation of Sh3.6 billion for the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission;Sh3.4 billion for the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions; Sh8.4 billion for the Criminal Investigations Services; and Sh6.4 billion for the Office of the Auditor General,\u201d said Yatani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year\u2019s figures are slightly above the ones set aside for these institutions in 2021 where CS\u00a0Yatani had allocated\u00a0Sh3.3 billion for the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission, Sh3.2 billion for the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, Sh7.6 billion for the Directorate of \u00a0Criminal Investigations and Sh5.9 billion for the Office of the Auditor General.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The government\u2019s move not to review downwards the anti-corruption kitty seemingly demonstrate confidence in the ongoing efforts in the fight against graft.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
