    "content": "On claims of annual cuts on health budget contrary to the Abuja Declaration, Kenya is a signatory to the Abuja Declaration. However, the 15 per cent allocation of the national budget to health is seen as a long-term goal which the signatories try to achieve. Currently, Kenya stands at 7 per cent. It is not true that there have been annual cuts to the health budget. The Printed Estimates published by the Treasury every year shows that the budget for the sector has been increasing. However, it has not been increasing in proportion to the demand of the increasing population and new health facilities. New facilities are constructed or upgraded each year. Since they are drawing from the limited pool of resources, the impression created is that the budget is being cut."
