A cash hitch has forced the Treasury to advance some county governments Sh20.3 billion in the three months to September for workers’ salaries after the Senate failed to agree with a cash allocation law approved by President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Treasury secretary Henry Rotich said he had failed to disburse the counties’ cash because the County Allocation of Revenue Act (CARA) 2017 assented to by the President is different from the one the Senate approved.
