The National Land Commission (NLC) says it is struggling to execute its mandate due to perennial underfunding, with allocations often less than a quarter of its budgetary requirements.
In the 2020-21 financial year, the allocation stood at Sh1.23 billion, approximately 27 per cent of NLC budgetary estimates on recurrent and development expenditure.
“The commission continues to receive inadequate budgetary allocations despite the critical role it plays in facilitating the national development agenda,” says NLC in its 2021-26 strategic plan.
