budgetary constraints. I therefore take this opportunity to
invite your guidance regarding the planned
activities for the Financial Year 2014/15.
I would like to register my appreciation to the Hon. Speaker,

The Ministerial Policy Statement is structured by Vote, as
follows:
This section sets out past performance and future plans for
Central and Local Government Votes in
more detail. It is structured as follows for each Vote: A Vote
Overview sets out key details of the

Vote Overview
Vote Annexes
Vote Functions
Each Minister shall cause to be prepared and submitted to
Parliament a Policy Statement of the relevant
Ministry on the preliminary [budget] estimates .... by the 30th
day of June in each year. Budget Act 2001,
Section 6 (1)
Structure
Since the FY2011/12 budget cycle, the preparation of sector
BFPs, Ministerial Policy Statements and
Budget Estimates centre around the notion of Vote Functions. A
Vote Function is a set of programmes,
projects, and Local Government Grants, defining the roles and
responsibilities of a vote/institution, and
contributing towards the attainment of vote and overall sector
objectives.
As such, a Vote Function provides detailed information on
centralised services, by capturing allocations to
Central Ministries and Stand Alone Votes, and decentralised
services funded via grants to Local
Governments
Provides details of approved staff structure for each programme
and project (including names of staff
and vacant posts). This is clearly demonstrated in the form of
an organogram.
