Section 26 and 27 of the Public Officer Ethics Act (POEA) requires all public officers to declare their Income, Assets and Liabilities (IAL). Since 2003 when the law requiring Public Officers to declare their Income, Assets and Liabilities (IAL) was enacted, the mode of declaration has been manual. Nowadays, the declaration is done online via portals provided to Public and Civil Servants in Kenya. All teachers are thus expected to fill an online Declaration by 31st December.
