    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I rise to make my comments and support The Energy Bill (National Assembly Bills.No.50 of 2017). This Bill is timely. It has come at a time when many Kenyans are asking questions around their personal consumption of energy in terms of electricity in their homesteads. We have had situations where there are inflated Bills. I believe this House is fairly seized of this matter. We hope with the enactment of this Bill, we will see a more robust energy sector that will open space for more actors so that there is competition and Kenyans will have options with regards to the tariff charges. Madam Temporary Speaker, it is true that the Constitution has provided for distinctive roles between the national Government and the county governments with regards to energy reticulation and production. If you look at our counties, there are so many small produces, but they find challenges in terms of reduction of cost of The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
