"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker and Hon. Members of the National Assembly, for granting me this opportunity to read the Budget Highlights and Revenue-Raising Measures for the Financial Year 2025/2026. It is with great honour and privilege that I present to this esteemed House and the people of Kenya the Budget Statement for the Financial Year 2025/2026. I make this Statement in compliance with Section 40 of the Public Finance Management Act, Cap. 412A and Standing Order 244C of the National Assembly. These legal provisions give life to the binding constitutional requirements of good governance to which the President and certainly the National Treasury and Economic Planning remain fully committed to. At the outset, allow me to express my sincere gratitude to His Excellency Hon. (Dr) William Samoei Ruto, the President of the Republic of Kenya and Commander in Chief of the Defence Forces, for the trust he bestowed upon me by appointing me the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury and Economic Planning to provide leadership in economic and financial affairs of our country. I remain mindful of the aspirations and high expectations of Kenyans as I serve in this office."
