Kenya Shipyards Limited, a state-owned shipbuilder, proposed establishing a ship repair dock at the Port of Mombasa. The facility would be designed to handle vessels between 185 and 285 meters long and could manage up to 32 repair contracts annually. The proposal was presented to the Committee on Defence, Intelligence and Foreign Relations of the National Assembly.
