    "content": "have set aside for the Economic Stimulus Programme and the Big Four Agenda, to support construction of roads and bridges as well as their rehabilitation and maintenance. The rehabilitation of the metre gauge railway has improved interconnectivity and reduced traffic congestion on our roads. To continue improving public transport within the Nairobi Metropolitan Area, I have set aside Kshs1.3 billion for railways metro lines. Further, to expand railway transport to the rest of the country, I have set aside Kshs27.2 billion for Phase II of the Standard Gauge Railway, Kshs2 billion for construction and rehabilitation of Naivasha Inland Container Depot - Malaba Line, Kshs2 billion for construction and rehabilitation of Riruta-Lenana- Ngong Railway, Kshs1.1 billion to complete rehabilitation of the Nairobi-Nanyuki Metre Gauge Railway Line and Kshs700 million to complete rehabilitation of the Nakuru-Kisumu Metre Gauge Railway. I have also set aside Kshs2 billion for the Kenya National Ship Yard. To support development of our ports, I have proposed an allocation of Kshs7.5 billion for the construction of the Mombasa Port Development Project and Kshs7.5 billion for the LAPSSET Project. Further, I have set aside Kshs128 million for insurance of ferries for the Likoni Channel, Kshs149 million for maintenance of ferries and jetties headquarters and Kshs603 million for construction and expansion of airports and airstrips. To support production of reliable and affordable energy, I have set aside a total of Kshs71.9 billion excluding the provision set aside under the Big Four Agenda initiatives. Out of this, Kshs50.1 billion will cater for transmission and distribution of power, Kshs11.3 billion for development of geothermal energy, Kshs6.4 billion for electrification of public facilities and Kshs1.3 billion for development of nuclear energy as well as exploration and mining of coal. Enhanced national security will create an enabling environment for business to thrive while aiding faster economic recovery. In this regard, I have proposed an allocation of Kshs294.5 billion to support operations of the National Police Service, Defence and the National Intelligence Service. The proposed allocations include Kshs119.8 billion for Defence, Kshs42.5 billion for the National Intelligence Service, Kshs110.6 billion for Policing and Prisons Services, Kshs10.7 billion for leasing of police motor vehicles and Kshs1 billion for Police Modernisation Programme.
