    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise, pursuant to Standing Order 53 (1), to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Energy regarding the operationalization of the Lake Turkana Wind Power Project in Samburu County. In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Give reasons why all parts of Samburu North, selected parts in Samburu West Constituency are not benefitting from power generated from the project, noting that the transmission of power passes through Samburu North and Samburu West Constituencies. (2) State when power substations will be set up in the county so as to step down power to benefit the residents. (3) Disclose the benefit sharing formula for locals, stating the number and percentage of employees employed by the project since it began its operations, shedding light on allegations that the project is importing non-technical labour. (4) State the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) projects being undertaken by the management of Lake Turkana Wind project in the county. (5) State future expansion plans of the project into the rest of Samburu County noting the wind potential available, tabling the assessment reports, if any, that was used to determine project viability in the county."
