    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise, pursuant to Standing Order No.53 (1), to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Energy regarding the fuel subsidy programme by the national Government. In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) state the criteria that was used in selecting the oil corporations and companies that were authorized to import fuel under the Government fuel subsidy programme that was in place from October 2021 until September 2022; (2) provide a list of the oil companies and corporations that benefited from the fuel subsidy programme, indicating the total amount of money that each company received during the said period of October 2021 to September 2022; (3) disclose the total pending payments as a subsidy to each of the companies and corporations that imported fuel under the program; and finally; and, (4) explain the measures that were put in place by the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) to ensure that consumers were cushioned against the high cost of fuel and oil products, noting that the products remain relatively high at that time of October, 2021 and September, 2022. I thank you."
