    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Senator for Kisii sought a Statement and I wish to clarify as follows: One, on the causes of frequent power failures in Kisii, Migori, Homa Bay and Nyamira counties; the power interruptions can be broadly categorized into four main areas; sustained breakdowns, transient breakdowns, controlled outages and planned outages. Over the period under query, analysis of the causes of breakdowns was found to be and not limited to the following; broken poles and conductors, trees and tree branches falling on lines, equipment failure, illegal extensions and tapping of electricity. Thirdly, the interference through road construction, people cutting trees, vehicles knocking power poles, birds causing short-circuits across the overhead conductors. As I said, there are mainly four areas: Sustained breakdown, there were 54 instances; transient breakdown, there were 23 instances; controlled breakdowns, there were 24 instances during the period and planned outages were three. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
