"content": "Secondly, as to whether people know about the Bill, we went to these places and so many people gave us brilliant ideas. Maybe the people on the ground were mobilised by few people like the commissioners. You can see from the presentation that was given that the public knows and understands the contents of the Bill and most importantly the local content that is indicated under Section 234 of the two Bills. We decided to go where geothermal power is generated and that is Naivasha and Narok. In Nakuru, we went to the county assembly to get its views on matters of revenue sharing. I agree with what Hon. Ichung’wah is saying. We need to have a formula on how we handle public participation. Who mobilises the people? We are finding it very difficult. We went to Turkana and the people were so many. They gave us brilliant ideas from the villages but again you feel that either the Member of Parliament is burdened by mobilisation or someone else is. We need to define public participation in a way that we do not burden a few people who are supposed to mobilise people for public participation."
