"content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, this Motion seeks that we introduce a regulatory body that will do two things. First, allow players to easily come into the market. We are living in a free economy market, but I think we are a model for many African countries. For us to be able to make truly our economy a model and a free economy for the rest of Africa, air travel is one of the areas that we need to liberalise. It is only recently that we have seen Jambo Jet coming in to offer low cost air fares. If only we can put up an efficient regulatory body that can reduce the bureaucracy around the issuing of licences for investors, it would be good. It is only now we are enjoying low fares that are offered by Jambo Jet. You can get fares as low as Kshs5,000 at times and I can tell you that if we allow more players to come in, we will definitely be bringing competition and when competition comes in usually it is the customer who benefits because he or she will be able to get reduced fares."
