A limited liability Company, run by a Board of directors, will oversee the operations of Kenya's five trillion shillings National Infrastructure Fund, should a bill before Parliament become law. According to a bill sponsored by the Leader of the Majority, Kimani Ichung’wah, which has been tabled before parliament, the fund aims at reducing reliance on public debt and taxes for infrastructure financing as well as attracting private capital investment. The move comes as critics question the powers the National Treasury will have on the Fund and what measures have been put in place to ensure it is not abused.
