THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT SERVICE COMMISSION TOURS WESTERN PROVINCE

The Local Government Service Commission (LGSC) is currently touring all the 16 Local Authorities in Western Province for an integrated program of Staff Induction and swearing-in of Human Resources Management Committees (HRMCs) and Staff Audit exercise.

The Commission will also take time to undertake site visits to selected projects financed by the Constitutency Development Fund (CDF). While the Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development (MLGRD) is primarily in charge of funding and monitoring CDF projects, the Commission takes a keen interest in undertaking spot checks given that it employs the very Staff that coordinate the Fund. The Commission has also included CDF Management as one the key indicators in the Performance Appraisals of all Principal Officers, hence the interest.

The program starts with a 5-day Induction from Monday, 6th October, 2025. The swearing-in ceremony which will have the full complements of the members of the Commission to be led by the Vice Chairperson, Mr. Brian M. Ndumba will be held on Friday, 10th October, 2026. Subsequently, the Commission will embark on a 10-day Staff Audit exercise in all the 16 Local Authorities in the Province.

The expected outcomes of the tour are to;

1. Duly appoint and swear in the HRMCs as prescribed by law;
2. Address the possible discrepancies to be identified from the Staff Audit.
3. Undertake backstopping of selected CDF projects.

All these interventions are meant to streamline human resource management in Local Authorities in the advent of enhanced devolution processes.
