"content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this mediated version of the Energy Bill because the amendments that had been brought by the Senate were ambiguous. This is because when we say we nominate two persons from the most represented sector, it is not very clear. That would have been a contention and it would have been very difficult for the CS to pick because some would have gone to court. So, this is very clear because those who are in the energy sector, as business people, are representatives of the KEPSA. So, it is easy for them to know who is operating in the energy sector from this association. Secondly, concerning the issue on the institution of higher learning, there are few universities in Kenya which offer courses in the energy sector such as petroleum and others. So, the three universities should sit down with the CS and propose one of their own to sit in the Board so that they can assist in the courses that they need to offer at the universities that will be of use in the sector. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I support the mediated version."
