    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am happy to note that the Government has allocated my Ministry funds for important new projects and programmes as follows: Economic Stimulus Programme. Under the Development Vote, the Ministry has been allocated a total of Kshs5,740,000,000 to undertake the following activities: Recruitment of 20 nursing staff per constituency. This translates to 4,200 new employees countrywide. A total of Kshs655 million has been allocated to cater for these requirements. Construction of model health centres with maternity and children’s ward at an estimated cost of Kshs20 million per facility per constituency, amounting to Kshs4 billion. The House may wish to note that this amount will cover 200 constituencies. Purchase of motorcycles at an estimated cost of Kshs84 million and bicycles at an estimated cost of Kshs1 million to support the roll out of the community strategy. Purchase of medical drug kits and non-pharmaceutical items at a total cost of Kshs1 billion for use in dispensaries and health centres. This is a demonstration of the Government’s commitment to improve health service delivery throughout the country. It should, however, be noted that the programme activities are specific to this financial year and the Government must seek to safeguard and sustain the gains realized through these programmes."
