    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First of all, allow me to start by thanking the Minister for the timely response and for dealing with the matter with the seriousness it deserves. However, I notice that in addressing the issues that I had raised, the Minister has not talked about the safety precautions being taken to avoid a recurrence of the incidents. He has also not stated – which to me is fundamental – whether Jet-Link, indeed, has an anchor at JKIA, and if they do not, how they maintain their aircraft. The Minister has also not stated what steps Jet-Link Aviation is taking to compensate the passengers. This is also a fundamental matter, because it touches on the rights of passengers. Mr. Speaker, Sir, lastly, the Minister misquoted me. All I said in the my request for the Ministerial Statement was that Jet-Link Aviation did receive an aircraft from a former Eastern bloc country. I did not say that it was made there. What I wanted to know was whether the particular aircraft was certified by the KCAA as airworthy to be used in Kenya. Having said that, I want to seek the following clarifications from the Minister. Airports in all the countries of the world levy what we call “Passenger Tax”. The main reason for levying this tax is to make passengers to contribute towards maintenance of facilities at airports. Facilities at airports include ground facilities and facilities for navigation. In Kenya, ground facilities are maintained by the Kenya Airports Authority"
