"content": "Hon. Speaker, we had the need for a licensing authority to safeguard against a licensee. We came to a realisation that a licensee walks in and is frustrated because of the many licenses required. We have tried to harmonise some of these licenses to attract more investors into this sector. We also saw the need from the public as protected by the public the need to harmonise the licenses. This is a debatable issue. In Tanzania, they increased the tax on kerosene to almost the same price as diesel and there is no adulteration whatsoever. This is because kerosene is bought and used to adulterate the petroleum product. In Tanzania the price of kerosene and diesel is at par. Therefore, there is no need for you to buy kerosene at the same price and adulterate it. In our country, the big margin between kerosene and petroleum is about Kshs33 and that is what entices these people to continue adulterating petroleum."
