"content": "This is of particular interest. The proposed amendment sought to increase levies levied on electricity and petroleum by EPRA from 0.5 per cent to 1 per cent. In other words, EPRA wanted to double their collections. We understand that these collections are directly levied on electricity and petroleum. As the Departmental Committee on Energy, we are also working on reducing the cost of energy. Therefore, this amendment sought to negate the very effort we are putting in, which is why we propose a deletion."

At this difficult time when Kenyans are struggling with paying bills, especially electricity bills, it is very inappropriate for EPRA to increase their levy from 0.5 to 1 per cent, which is more than 50 per cent. Therefore, I support the Committee and the Hon. Chairman that this is not the right time. We are living in a very difficult time. As a country, we are looking at measures to reduce the cost of electricity for our people. I support, Hon. Temporary Chairman."
