Also, we need to cut down on imports. We have provisional power everywhere and, therefore, with liberalization in the education sector, we should end up creating employment with young people becoming self-employed. Madam Temporary Speaker, I ask this House to support this Bill because it supports one of the pillars of the Big Four Agenda; which is manufacturing. We will not be industrialized until we have sufficient and affordable energy. Also, we shall not provide education until we have power in this country because most of the learning today is done digitally which requires a lot of power. In addition, I request that we must look more internally to see what potential we can unlock starting with financial. There is a lot of pension money, I will mention once again, which is used for the development of some buildings and such projects which should be going to industrialization. For example, the USA built the Panama Canal from its own resources. Kenya could learn from this. We have resources which would be cheaper than importing. With agriculture, this country will develop and get to the level of industrialization that our Government has committed itself to. We must look into how technology can help us to improve agriculture by doing more research. This will require energy. Therefore, the Bill is envisaging unlocking the potential of this country. The Bill is envisaging some kind of control on the diversionary that occurs at times on energy projects. Energy requires a lot of money and this is what this Bill and the Commission that will be in charge of it should get the investors in this country whom may wish to come and feel comfortable. The Mui Basin has been mentioned on this Bill. We all remember about the coal that has been lying in the Mui Basin. Madam Temporary Speaker, as you all remember during the campaigns, the Nigerian President came with Mr. Aliko Dangote and he was willing to develop the Mui Basin. So, let us create an enabling climate. Today, when you are building anything in Masailand and manyattas spring up, then you go to another place and people put up sheds, this will make our projects unnecessarily expensive. Therefore, in this House, I call upon the politicians to create the right climate for what this Bill envisages. With those words, I second the Bill."}
