    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. While appreciating the measures that the Government has taken, I would like to ask the Prime Cabinet Secretary some questions on energy. Energy is probably one of the biggest drivers of cost of living. I did not get any information on power and how the Government is intending to deal with Independent Power Producers (IPPs) whose contracts, as we are all aware, have caused very serious impact on the cost of power. Fuel distribution is also a problem. Previously, the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) has allowed big importers to make prime profits without any profit margin for the resellers in the middle. Many have been driven out of business leaving just the big importers, who are also resellers. Most of these importers are foreign. This has created a situation of cartel behaviour in the fuel industry. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
