    "content": "have been struggling to get women to use gas for cooking. How can we on earth add another 40 per cent as tax on green energy? I do not even have words to speak to this issue. It is a terrible thing. I urge the Senator to forward this to the Senate Committee on Finance and Budget, which I am a Member. We are going to push this issue to the highest level, even if it means going to the National Treasury or any other place. There is no way the Government of Kenya can add more percentage in form of tax on green energy, because we need to be clean in terms of health. When we talk of clean energy, we are talking of the women, the suffering of the children and the suitability of our forests. We cannot be talking about these things at the same time looking at how we can tax. It is unfortunate. We want to go to the depth of this matter and urge the Government that there is no way they are going to add any tax to green energy in this country. I support."
