    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity to ask Question 421 of 2021. This question is directed to the Cabinet Secretary for Energy. It reads: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary explain why Kenya Power and Lighting Company Limited is operating without insurance of critical assets under Public Liability (with Consequential Loss) insurance cover, and Fire and Perils cover for 122 substations distributed across the country, thereby exposing strategic public installations worth over Ksh37 billion and employees to major risks in case of accidents? (ii) Under what circumstances was the procurement of the two insurance contracts contained in Tender No.? KPI/9A.2/RT/001/INS/21-22 not awarded and finalised even after completion of tender evaluation and issuing notification letters to successful bidders? (iii) What specific steps is the Cabinet Secretary taking to ensure prompt completion of the procurement process and alleviate potential operational and financial risks that are likely to arise from lack of insurance cover for strategic national installations at the KPLC? Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
