    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee of Energy regarding the passage of deliberately incurred demurrage costs to consumers of petroleum products. In the statement, the Committee should- (1) State the current daily tariff for demurrage of the Port of Mombasa for ships carrying petroleum products, indicating the maximum required vis-à-vis current average timelines for loading and clearing the petroleum products at the port. (2) Disclose the total amount of money paid for demurrage so far in the Financial Year (FY)2024/2025 for delays in offloading and clearing petroleum products at the Port of Mombasa, providing reasons for the delay. (3) Provide the details of the current arrangement for payment of demurrage fees under the Government-to-Government or G2G agreement between Kenya and the Gulf countries for the supply of fuel, stating whether the monthly Fossil Scheduling Meeting, (FSM), that normally approves payment of demurrage fees still takes place. (4) Explain why the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA), passes down demurrage costs to consumers of petroleum products, yet some ships that are bringing in this product are deliberately delayed so that they can claim substantial amounts in demurrage fees at the port. I thank you."
