• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, what happened is that there are projects which were funded by the AFD and the Spanish Government. The ones that were funded by the Spanish Government are still ongoing. The AFD-funded projects are completed but we realised that part of the work, as provided in the scope of works, had been done using Government of Kenya (GoK) funds. Therefore, there was an audit, which was done--- view
• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not know whether that is a question. Do I answer this one or the first one, first? view
• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there was an audit, which has been completed so far, to ascertain the scope of works done under the AFD and the Spanish Government-funded projects. I want to assure this House that the audit has been done and the transformers that were less in some of the projects will be installed. So, I want to regret the inconvenience that has been caused by that delay. view
• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: On the question asked by Mr. Muturi Mwangi, currently, there are transformers. For KPLC projects, we do not have any problem. There are enough transformers. The only ones that are missing are transformers for the REA for 11 KV lines, which will arrive this week. So, I can say comfortably that in the next two weeks, we will have enough transformers. However, we already have transformers for 33 KV lines. view
• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the money that goes to the REA is from the Exchequer, which is Government money. It is an agent which transacts business on behalf of the Ministry of Energy. After completion of the lines, the KPLC takes them over and provides services to customers. view
• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Which assets are you talking about? Is it the lines? view
• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, of course transformers form part of the lines, which are taken over by the KPLC, because they are Government lines. The KPLC is a Government agent that runs those lines upon taking them over from REA. view
• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Government is not a minority shareholder in the KPLC. The Government is the majority shareholder. Once the lines are completed, because they are funded by the Government, the KPLC takes them over by providing services to customers. Therefore, all those lines will belong to the KPLC. The same applies to Kenya Electricity Transmission Company Ltd. KETRACO, which is in charge of building the transmission lines. view
• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not have the statistics with me now, but I can give them to him in the afternoon or tomorrow. That is a different Question from the one asked by Mr. Mbadi. view
• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, on the issue of shareholding, I think I have said very clearly that we will give you the information. As the Government, we can give the information--- view
