    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Ministry has done its level best. However, we can only deal with the issue of taxation from this House or through the Ministry of Finance. It should be noted that in 2004, the Ministry of Energy negotiated with Ibera Africa and we reduced the bulk of tariffs from Kshs395 to Kshs197 per kilowatt per year. That means that we can stabilise the cost of power. If hon. Members listened carefully, through the initiation of the Government, the implementation of the Energy Sector Recovery Project is also going to stabilise the tariffs. We are increasing our generation capacity, especially in Ol Karia where we are producing another 31 megawatts. In addition, we are up-grading the distribution. This will stabilise the tariffs."
