    "content": "(b) The CDTF has since inception disbursed about Kshs2, 020,754,000 to community based projects countrywide of which Kshs16 million has been allocated to projects in Turkana County. This translates to 0.8 per cent of the total disbursements under this programme. In addition, the EDP has disbursed a total of Kshs167 million to 18 projects countrywide of which one project in Turkana County has received Kshs24, 421,000; this translates to 15 per cent of the total disbursement under the emergency programme. (c) The following relates to projects planned for implementation in Turkana County in the next three years under CDTF, PEC and MDGs. On CDTF, programmes are demand driven and funds are allocated on merit according to set criteria. CDTF does not pre-allocate funds to any part of the country. Projects are selected and funded after a call for proposals, which is advertised and published in all the media countrywide. On PEC, the Commission funded projects are determined by the budgetary allocations in each financial year and, therefore, it is difficult to plan for projects in a certain country. Plans to support other projects in Turkana County will be considered once the funding levels are increased to match the demands for these funds. On MDGs, the Government is in the process of finalizing the second phase of MDGs programme which will be funded by our development partners in the period 2011. This project will also have interventions in Turkana County which is one of the MDGs districts. The specific interventions will be based on a laid down selection process."
