    "content": "Hon. Speaker, to further accelerate economic recovery and improve livelihoods, the Government will continue to implement and expand the Economic Recovery Programme in this budget. The Programme is hinged on a sound macroeconomic policy framework that aims to: a) Enhance security for our citizens and their properties, while fostering a secure and conducive business environment; b) Scale up development of critical infrastructure in roads, rail, energy and water sectors. This will ease movements of people and goods, reduce the cost of doing business, enhance access to social amenities and promote Kenya’s competitiveness; c) Enhance transformation of key economic sectors for broad-based sustainable recovery by promoting agricultural productivity, growth in manufacturing, environmental conservation and water supply; support tourism recovery; and ensure sustainable land use and management; d) Expand access to quality social services in health, education and appropriate social safety-nets for the vulnerable population; e) Support the youth, women and persons living with disabilities through Government funded empowerment programs; f) Continue supporting the devolved system of Government through active engagements, policy guidance and timely transfers of sharable revenues. This will indeed strengthen county governments’ systems and enhance quality service delivery; and g) Sustain implementation of various reforms targeted at enhancing efficiency in the delivery of public services."
