The Auditor General’s Office is expected to publish a comprehensive audit on Kenya’s fuel subsidy status by the end of this month as part of a budgetary support deal the country has with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
This is one of the IMF’s structural benchmarks, or reform measures used by the multilateral financier to assess the progress of the programme. The IMF gave Kenya a deadline of January 2025 to put this reform measure in place.
