"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I stand to support these amendments with a number of facts. I have always stated here that I have an interest in this sector, having been a matatu operator and a national secretary-general. The Traffic Department is within the police force and it has a lot of problems. First and foremost, I would want to encourage the Minister for Transport, Mr. Kimunya, to plead with the Office of the President to transfer the traffic enforcement to his Ministry. That way, he will have a traffic department within the Ministry of Transport. As of now, there is total confusion when they do not report to anybody. The traffic police officers are autonomous. They are on their own. The base commander does not report to the OCPD. They do things arbitrarily. The officers under him are only loyal to him. They are not loyal to the OCPD."
