    "content": "Hon. Speaker, we have noted that most of the concerns raised by Kenyans were associated with the negative effects of COVID-19 Pandemic. In response, the Government developed and implemented appropriated economic policies and rolled out targeted programs that cushioned the citizens and businesses from the adverse effects of the pandemic. Building on the progress realised, we have outlined policies in this Budget that are geared towards returning the economy back on a more sustainable growth path for improved livelihoods. In pursuit of this, we have therefore chosen this year’s Budget theme as “Accelerating Economic Recovery for Improved Livelihood”. The Government will implement economic policies and undertake structural reforms geared towards improving the welfare of Kenyans. This includes aligning and accelerating implementation of the Big Four Agenda and the third Economic Stimulus Program for sustainable growth."
