We are improving our public finance management to pre-empt rent seeking opportunities and eliminate wastage. Hon. Speaker, we have continued to build up capacity among institutions implementing public financial management reforms. I have rolled out the e-procurement modules under the Integrated Financial Management Information System (IFMIS). Further, I gazetted regulations for the Public Financial Management (PFM) Act 2012 in 2015 for both the national Government and the county governments. These regulations seek to set a standardised financial management system to ensure accountability, transparency, effective, economic and efficient collection and utilisation of public resources. We now require all accounting officers to strictly adhere to those regulations. As a way to dismantle entrenched interests in expenditure executing agencies, we have redeployed all public finance officers – those are accountants, finance officers, internal auditors and procurement officers – to serve in new stations for a maximum of three years. Those who will handle procurement will have to undergo vetting."
