This part of the amendment seeks to enhance the penalty for a person who makes a false statement to the Cabinet Secretary or the Energy Regulatory Commission. Clause 237(b) of the Bill provides for a penalty of not less than one hundred thousand shillings. The words “not less than” mean infinity. Therefore, we are replacing the penalty with a penalty ‘not exceeding ten million shillings or imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years or both.’"}
