    "content": "project. In fact, let me confirm to the House that it is the policy of the Ministry that any space with a sports facility of the scale of Kinoru Stadium should be serviced by a police post. It should have the capacity to house security apparatus within the ecosystem of the stadium. There is a commitment. I can assure the Member that efforts will be made to get the resources. There is also the challenge of land. The county government had allocated some land for this purpose. The Hon. Member should reach a consensus with the county government in terms of the actual land location for this project. Because Government is an ongoing concern, as soon as resources become available, the stadium will be constructed. Even though this is a commitment by a previous administration, the current administration inherits those commitments. They are commitments that should be carried forward. With regard to the youth empowerment centre, again, let me make it clear that this is a different administration with different priorities. This administration would certainly not support the earlier attempt to pull down this centre. The approach we have taken for this kind of infrastructure is integration and composite development where we can have a stadium and other facilities for creatives where young people can engage in music, film, ICT and innovation. Therefore, there is absolutely nothing wrong to have a stadium, recording studios and an innovation centre. We can have that whole ecosystem integrated. If I have heard the Hon. Member right, he said that the land on which this centre stands should be excised and delineated from the land of the stadium. That is possible. The land actually belongs to the county government. That is a process which the Ministry would certainly support. We would not be averse to that, Hon. Speaker."
