    "content": "As of 31st January 2025, our total revenue collection stood at Ksh1.58 trillion, which fell short by Ksh110 billion of our target for this financial year. However, it is important to note that out of this revenue underperformance, Ksh103 billion was on ordinary revenue. However, we saw an overperformance of Appropriation-in-Aid (A-in-A) by around Ksh3.1 billion. Although our revenues are increasing, we are still below the target. Most importantly, our collections as A-in-A, which we call non-tax revenue, actually grew by more than Ksh3.1 billion. That is a great indicator that we could generate more revenue if we digitised our programmes on platforms like e-Citizen. The move from tax revenue to non-tax revenue also reduces the burden of taxation on Kenyans. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
