Therefore, the Government will establish a Youth Enterprise Fund to enable young people access credit to start or scale up small and medium- scale enterprises and to develop their entrepreneurial skills and create job opportunities. To make this Fund operational, I have allocated an initial Kshs1 billion in the year 2006/2007 Budget."}
