    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to thank the Minister for the Statement that he has issued. I am a bit disappointed though, that we are slipping back. Our roads 654 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES April 17, 2007 have been spoilt very much by oil tankers. It has been our hope that with the pipeline, we would reduce the tankers that ply our roads. Certainly, when we concessioned our railways to a private company, we had hoped that it will reduce the destruction of our roads and rail transport would become very efficient. Now, the Minister has said that more tankers will be used to ferry oil products from Mombasa. Is that not a step back? Is there no way we can ensure that the railway becomes more efficient? I believe another Ministerial Statement will be requested on the concessioning of Kenya Railways. But, clearly, that is a slip-back and the Government must ensure that our railway becomes more efficient so that we can reduce the number of tankers on our roads. Thank you."
