This is done following guiding principles stipulated in the Local Government Budget Paper. The fact that budgeting is an annual exercise, it is a reliable mechanism which provides a yard stick for planning and budgeting in Local Governments and also provides a basis for comparision of the District achievements as compared to national standards. The District Local Government will ensure successful implementation of all Government programmes with the aim of achieving value for money while improving quality of life.
