    "content": "At the same time, revamping the manufacturing sector will increase both the formal and informal manufacturing jobs to about 400,000 under the pillar of supporting value addition and raising the manufacturing sector share of the GDP to 15 per cent. For us to achieve revival of the manufacturing sector, we have to do it through various policy initiatives which are also found in this BPS. They include the textile industry, leather industry and agro-processing industry among other key sectors where various tangible deliverables have been highlighted. This BPS gives a lot in terms of the highlights, the sectors, what is to be achieved, the percentage and of course the resources to be allocated. Let us look at what this Government wants to do through this BPS on food and nutrition security to all Kenyans. In order, to achieve food security and proper nutrition to all Kenyans the Jubilee Government through various and well-thought interventions targets to increase production of various food crops such as maize, rice and potatoes. Providing universal healthcare coverage for all Kenyans is another pillar. Over the next five years the Government targets to put in place a universal healthcare cover where all Kenyans will access quality and affordable healthcare. The Jubilee Government targets to cover all Kenyans by the year 2022. Let me go to what we want to do in terms of housing. Access to adequate and affordable housing is a constitutional right to all citizens as enshrined in the supreme law. Despite this constitutional right, the country faces serious shortage in supply and provision of decent housing. It is against this backdrop that the Government intends to have a policy intervention in place by targeting to provide 500,000 affordable new houses by the year 2022.
