    "content": "Part III deals with the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC), which is to be a single sector regulator. It also talks about the Energy and Petroleum Tribunal. There are some sections of this Bill that deal with petroleum. When I talk of petroleum, remember that the Petroleum Bill is coming. I can see my colleague, the Member for Embakasi, shaking his head. In the Chamber, you do not shake the head; you wait and give your counter proposal. Your voters do not see you when you shake your head; they hear your voice which is recorded in the HANSARD. I am told you are a Member of the Departmental Committee on Energy. So, if you have issues, this is the time to say you disagree with this Bill on this-and-that clause and then during the Committee of the whole House you bring amendments. My good friend, I am just telling you that shaking of the head is not allowed here. I have a son and he used to cry a lot at night when there was darkness. Whenever I would ask him what the problem was, he would only shake his head. I realised I could not understand his problem. So, I told him not to shake his head. So, do not shake your head, my good friend. So, matters to do with the ERC are well documented in Part III because the ERC deals with many issues within the energy sector. We have the Energy and Petroleum Tribunal set together. It will be the successor of the current Energy Tribunal. Under the new structure, we have separately the petroleum and energy sectors. In fact, that is why we have the Energy and Petroleum Tribunal to deal with those issues."
