    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the allocation of Kshs4 billion is a grant to KenGen. The Kshs2 billion was in respect of taxes for the fuel that would be used by KenGen for emergency power generation. If that tax element was not given, the cost of power would accordingly rise to the tune of that Kshs2 billion. So, the Government is in effect subsidising the cost of power to wananchi . The Kshs4 billion under this Item, is for capacity hire. When we contract companies to come and generate power in this country, there is a capacity charge which is paid on a monthly basis. So, the Kshs4 billion goes towards the rental of that equipment."
