    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. I also rise to support this Report by the Committee on Energy, led by my friend and neighbour, Sen. Wamatinga. I will be very brief. The purview of this Report was on the cost of power in Kenya. Everyone that pays for power - and I believe almost everybody in this House has a meter somewhere and knows that over the last two years - the cost of power has shoot through the roof. Therefore, this is a matter that concerns all of us. It is a matter that has affected the cost of production in this country and resulted in high prices of goods and commodities; consequently, a high cost of living. Therefore, this Report could not have come at a better time. There are many concerns with KPC. They recently introduced Smart Meters and one thing that I find very interesting with these Smart Meters is that, of course, the consumer will not know how accurate the readings from these meters are. Therefore, consumers might not know whether actually what they are charged is what they have consumed. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
