    "content": " Hon. Deputy Speaker, I received this Petition while coming into the premises of Parliament. It is by tax operators who were demonstrating. Therefore, I want to present it before the House on their behalf. This is a Petition by the Transport Operators Workers’ Union of Kenya on the creation of regulations for digital taxi/cab operators. I, the undersigned, on behalf of the Public Transport Operators Workers Union of Kenya, draw the attention of the House to the following: THAT, the regulations of the Kenya taxi have evolved from the formulation of the City of Nairobi taxi/cab bylaws of 1963 based on the repealed Local Government Act; THAT, in the late 80s, the corporate taxi companies entered the market and were incorporated with the County Government of Nairobi under the taxi/cab bylaws of 2007; THAT, entry into the market of other tax providers like Easy Taxi, Uber Kenya Limited among others occasioned the review of current regulations to accommodate them; The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
