    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, while we appreciate the effort of the Government in power reticulation, there are still very high charges for connection of power to small scale industries, including farmers in the rural areas. Could the Chairperson give a Statement on why small scale companies which use power for irrigation, coffee milling and so on, are being charged to the tune of Kshs1 million while the Government says the cost of electricity connectivity has been reduced to Kshws15,000? Why are they charging Kshs1 million for connectivity yet these small scale industries are the ones which have the potential to create employment for our people?"
