Winners and losers in Rotich’s revised budget

The Ministry of Education has lost a massive Sh14 billion in new supplementary budget tabled in Parliament yesterday.

Treasury Cabinet Secretary Henry Rotich also took away Sh11 billion from the department of agriculture as reality sunk that the Government might miss revenue collection targets. The taxman has already missed its half-year tax collection targets by a massive Sh47.6 billion. The new proposals, if passed by Parliament, will see the department of planning lose Sh7.5 billion in development budget and Sh350 million in recurrent spending.
