Views of representatives of key institutions in the public finance sector in Kenya specifically relating to the gains as well as challenges that will face the implementation of the PFM Act in Kenya were sort. This report documents the findings of the study and provides useful recommendations that would lead to the successful implementation of the Act in Kenya.
