"content": "and Twitter . Why do they not publish on the website? If it is XYZ that operates LPG plants somewhere in, for example, in Tenwek--- I know Tenwek has a very good hospital, and I am happy you just opened a new wing. I think also you are alumni of Tenwek High School, and I am happy with that school. I saw Franklin Bett was wearing a short, or kinyasa with your indulgence. I did not see you wearing, but I hope in the future you can wear the old uniform. So let us know, for example, in Tenwek, is there an LPG plant, so that we can audit, and tell wananchi, go and confirm. Nowadays, with the era of information, it is easy to ensure compliance. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, even your visitors who are still here, you know there were quite a number. They were 109 students from Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) Bishop Kogo Cheptil School in Mossop Sub-County, Nandi North, is a generation of information. In fact, these young girls and boys who are seated here know more than us, because this is a generation of digital information. They know a lot of things, unlike our era. I do not know the other ones who are called Gen Z, and there is Alpha. I do not know which group is this, but they know much more than we did during our era, because this is a digital and information age. We wish them well as they go back to school and continue to learn. So, on this issue of regulation of EPRA, we urge them to do their job. EPRA, your job is not only to read the prices of petroleum from January to December. Let us see EPRA in action, so that there is accountability. I know for us, politicians, our accountability is quite high. However, when we want to hold accountability of these people, it is hard to. Therefore, in reference to this Motion and Report of the Senate Standing Committee on Energy on the inquiry into the LPG gas explosion in Mradi area, Embakasi, Nairobi City County, the Kenyans who lost their lives and property must be compensated. The people who committed criminal negligence, including their owners, regulators and approvers, must be criminally charged for criminal negligence. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the LPG gas plants in our estates and residential areas must be immediately shut down. Compensation must happen. I urge EPRA to do more than just reading the prices of fuel from January to December. With those remarks and indulgence, I beg to support this Motion that came on behalf of the Senate Standing Committee on Energy on the issue of LPG plant explosion in Mradi area in Embakasi constituency in Nairobi City County. 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."
