    "content": "I felt that I should make a comment on that issue. This is because I have heard many of our colleagues speak to this issue in their contribution before getting to the general recommendations of the Report. They ask what is going to happen and who is going to follow to ensure that the recommendations are implemented. For example, who is going to follow to ensure compliance on Recommendation No.206, which says- “Within 14 days after the adoption by the Senate, the Ministry of Energy should disclose the full identities of beneficial owners of the IPPs, including companies listed as shareholders in foreign jurisdictions.” Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is upon the Standing Committee on Energy to sit again two weeks after we have passed this Report. They should demand that from Ministry of Energy and Petroleum because the Senate made a resolution. Resolutions of the House are not suggestions. They are binding and have legal implications. I expect that when Sen. Wamatinga sits down with his Committee two weeks after the passage of this Report, they will be demanding for answers from the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum. This is because the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum will be sufficiently supplied with this Report and all that has been said and whatever is expected of them. The same can be said of Kenya Electricity Transmission Company"
