Strategic Plan for Central Bureau of Statistics, Kenya MAP of KENYA REPUBLIC OF KENYA MINISTRY OF PLANNING AND NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT 2003/4-2007/8 STRATEGIC PLAN FOR NATIONAL STATISTICAL SYSTEM March, 2003 Strategic Plan for Central Bureau of Statistics, Kenya MAP OF KENYA i Strategic Plan for Central Bureau of Statistics, Kenya FOREWORD The National Rainbow Coalition (NARC) promised the people of Kenya that when elected in December 2002 general elections to form the new government, it would do two main things: to reverse the trend of political repression and authoritarianism and restore democratic governance, the rule of law and respect of human rights, and to empower the people. The government would create 500,000 jobs annually and provide free primary education to all school going age children. The NARC government is not only keen to deliver on these promises but must be seen to do so. Accordingly, the government is in advanced stages of formulating programmes to deliver good governance of the polity and an Economic Recovery Action Plan geared towards turning the economy around. The government is very much aware about the need for better statistics to inform the design, implementation and eventual evaluation of various development programmes for economic recovery and national development. These statistics will, no doubt, come from different institutions - government Ministries and departments, public sector institutions and, of course, the Central Bureau of Statistics. The Bureau is expected to play a greater role than before in the development of national statistics; it will have to develop standards, promote best practices and coordinate the entire National Statistical System to ensure that better statistics are produced for better planning, policy formulation, programme design and development, and effective implementation. In order to be able to do this and more, the Bureau will have to be strengthened in the first instance as past evidence shows that it has been weak, under-staffed, under-resourced, and therefore vulnerable. During the previous regime, many studies were carried out on restructuring and strengthening the Bureau. The recommendations made in these studies remained unimplemented. These studies and their recommendations added to a long list of uncompleted projects in the past regime that never benefited the people of Kenya. I cannot stress enough the importance my Ministry and indeed the NARC government attaches to statistical data and information. The government is aware that prudent management of a modern state is not possible without good statistics. And no country can have good statistics unless it has a robust Central Bureau of Statistics, properly staffed and well resourced. It is, therefore, the intention of my Ministry to ensure that the Bureau becomes a semi-autonomous agency of government that is efficient and responsive to user needs, and that the profile of statistics is raised in government. While the status of the Bureau is crucial, internal efficiency and effective management will remain key features of the statistical system. Only then will the Bureau be positioned to meet the challenges of producing needed statistics and effectively coordinate the National Statistical System. I am happy, therefore, to write this foreword to the Strategic Plan that has been designed to reverse the decline in production of national statistics, set strategic directions for the provision of national statistics, provide a “road map” for developing national statistics and provide a framework for harnessing resources. This Strategic Plan is not only consistent with but will augment government efforts to have a monitoring and evaluation system both for the economic recovery programme and poverty reduction, through the supply of reliable and timely information. I am particularly happy to learn that among many strategies, the Plan aims to foster coordination, collaboration, networking and information sharing. Let me mention that ii Strategic Plan for Central Bureau of Statistics, Kenya many good Plans are written but few are fully implemented. My Ministry will do every thing possible to ensure that this Plan is fully implemented. Our expectation is that with a sound Bureau in place and a reinvigorated National Statistical System that is properly coordinated, the government and other stakeholders will get quality statistics (accurate, consistent, timely) to track progress being made towards meeting our development goals and targets on poverty reduction, job c reation, housing, agricultural production, health, education, transport and communication, etc. It will also be possible to monitor the emerging trends and to ascertain what factors are responsible for any deviations and to create opportunity to design remedial measures in time. On behalf of government and my Ministry, I would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation to development partners who, over the years, have assisted to develop statistical capacity in Kenya. I would like particula rly to thank the Department for International Development of the British Government and the World Bank for funding the design of this Strategic Plan. I would also like to thank the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), for facilitating components of the Strategic Plan. Finally, I would like to express our appreciation to all individuals who played a part in the design of the Plan. In particular, I wish to recognize the role played by the Consultants - Prof. Ben Kiregyera and Mr. Philip Gachuki.
