The National and County Government Coordinating Summit will today start in Naivasha, bringing together governors, cabinet secretaries and principal secretaries.
Division for revenue, which has been the source of contention between the counties and the national government is one of the major issues for discussion during the two-day summit.
The summit will be chaired by President William Ruto with COG chairperson Anne Waiguru acting as the deputy.
The law requires that the summit is held twice a year.
Also to be discussed during the meeting is the longstanding delay in the transfer of some key functions to the counties.
Ruto has previously called for the unbundling of functions expressing his commitment to offering required resources.
The formation of the county policing authority is also set to feature in the discussions.
There will also be an update on the resolutions arrived at during the January 7, meeting in Nanyuki.
While the county chiefs have maintained they need an increase from Sh370 billion to Sh425 billion, Treasury has said it can only add Sh10 billion on top.
Commission on Revenue Allocation has expressed its willingness of increasing it to Sh407 billion.
Bills concerning the counties and Intergovernmental relations between the two levels will also feature during the meeting to end on Saturday.
Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua is also attending the meeting.
Speaking in Mombasa during the close of the four-day post-election seminar for senators, Gachagua said the government was not ready to increase the allocation
"What we don't want to do is to cheat governors that we will give them money that we don't have. They were promised Sh50 billion, but it never came," he said.
