In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) State the amount of electricity produced in the hydroelectric dams in Embu, including Masinga, Kamburu, Kindaruma, Gitari and Kiambere by the Kenya electricity generating company KenGen and distributed by the KPLC. (2) Outline the estimated proportion of KPLC annual profit attributable to the electricity itself that is produced in the said five dams. (3) State the amount of money that KPLC set aside for CSR from the year 2021 to date and the counties in which the CSR budget was expended explaining the proportion of the CSR budget spent in Embu County and the project funded. (4) Elaborate on any plans in place to improve the livelihoods of communities that house and protect electricity production in Kenya, outlining which of those plans are programmed for Embu County."
