    "content": " Well guided. You approved this Statement. I have to finish it. Through the Budget and Appropriations Committee, my committee requested for a budget of Ksh6 billion in the Supplementary Budget of 2022/2023 to catalyse housing construction and achieve quick wins during the first phase of the programme. Through the Budget and Appropriations Committee’s Report on the Supplementary Estimates I, the House adopted to allocate about Ksh1 billion as seed money towards this project. It is to start the project to create new home-owners at the local level. Under the Affordable Housing Programme, the national Government will work with the National Assembly to fund the construction of 100 housing units per constituency targeting new home-owners at constituency level. With 290 constituencies nationwide, this is a potential of 29,000 housing units representing the potential to create a new generation of homeowners at the local level. The programme will require Members of this House or the National Assembly to identify suitable Government land for the project so as to reduce the final cost of homes to buyers. Additionally, since the programme has a broader aim of local area economic recovery, it will require Members of Parliament to assist in the organisation, identification and co- operation of those Jua Kali associations, groups of the youth, women and Persons Living with The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
