    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I thank the hon. Member for that question. As hon. Members are aware, we have no control over the prices of fuel. As you know, our economy is a free economy. It is determined by supply and demand. However, the Government has noted the impact of fuel prices against the standards of living of Kenyans. That is why I isolated the inflation rate excluding the food prices and the fuel prices. What the Government is now doing is providing more budget provision. I hope the Ministry of Finance will make a budget provision within the Supplementary Estimates, so that the National Oil Corporation of Kenya (NOCK) can have a substantial market share. That way, they can use that to control the prices."
