Thousands of critically ill children and burn victims will have to wait longer for treatment at the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) after the government slashed funding for the completion of the Burns Management Centre and Paediatric Emergency Centre by Sh900 million in the financial year starting July.
In the budget presented to Parliament, the Treasury allocated Sh1.2 billion for the project, down from Sh2.1 billion in the current year.
