    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Petition. I also support what the Deputy Speaker has said. However, remember that these are people’s businesses. Skyward Express has been expanding its operations to Homa Bay and Migori. We need to ensure that they meet safety standards. Yesterday, we talked about safety and regulations in terms of aircraft management when ratifying the East African Community (EAC) Multilateral Agreement on Aircraft Accident and Incident Investigations. We should start with our own domestic laws and regulations on how we deal with domestic flights, which we use quite often when flying to the western and eastern regions. The Committee should invite all stakeholders to explain more about safety. Do you remember that Fly540 aircraft, which was flying from Eldoret to Nairobi, ended up in the Aberdares? I do not think we ever followed up to understand how the pilot ended up in the Aberdares. I know the weather was bad. We should look into it to see how we can make flying safer for every Kenyan. I support the Petition. I hope the Committee will do a good job in terms of meeting all airlines and ensuring the safety of Kenyans. As Parliament, we should ensure that we set good standards and regulations that govern airline safety."
