Deputy Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2) (c), I rise to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Energy regarding the on-going power outages in Garissa. In the recent past, there have been frequent power outages in Garissa County which have disrupted critical services, including health facilities, public institutions and commercial entities. The outages have caused panic amongst the area residents, noting that this may result to incidences of insecurity and negatively impact the economic growth. It is against this background that I request for a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Energy on the following: 1. Could the Chairperson provide a report on the steps that are being taken by the Ministry of Energy to address the frequent power outages in Garissa County? 2. What action has the Ministry taken to ensure stable power supply in the county? I, thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Also, to note, the same was raised by the area Member of Parliament for Ijara Constituency. Thank you. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
