Governance… budget

KMC Budget and expenditure.docx

No specific budget subvote/ expenditure on climate change nor climate related environmental issues.

No budget allocation for land use development control. … in fact KMC has no specific unit for land

development control; land development control matters are handled as additional and not core function.
