    "content": "their cars, as the good Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo was saying, then they need to pay hourly rates for parking in city centres. Madam Temporary Speaker, this country needs to move forward. We need men and women of repute who can put our country in a safe situation and assist in cases of saving lives during emergencies. The other day, I saw the Cabinet Secretary for Transport coming up with a raft of new rules to for the transport sector. I was surprised because the rules and laws are there, what is required is just implementation. I was very surprised to see that they were talking about those rules taking effect in July, 2014. I was wondering. I support some of the speakers who said that the new Cabinet Secretaries who have been appointed, even though they are technocrats, they do not understand the political dynamics of our people. These are issues we need to deal with. I do not think the Cabinet Secretaries need a year to implement the laws which are there. Madam Temporary Speaker, emergency lanes are very crucial, as many have alluded to and as we saw when we suffered the Westgate Mall tragedy, and we require them to move. I, therefore, second this Motion and request the Mover of this Motion to think about coming up with a Bill at some point in time. Madam Temporary Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to second."
