"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we met with him in Committee Room No.5. I do not know what caused the communication breakdown. However, if they would have sought information from the relevant office, they would have known where the meeting was taking place. The CS will be here on Wednesday, next week. Therefore, they can still seek clarifications then. The issue of 10,000 kilometres raised by Sen. Wetangula would be better addressed by CS because it is a policy issue. With regard to the issue raised by Sen. Karaba, the preparation for the construction is ongoing. In fact, about 1,700 tenders have been awarded. There is a plan to ensure that a road is constructed in every county and priority given accordingly. I will give a detailed report later. The Government is aware of the high number of accidents involving motorbikes, not only along Nakuru -Eldoret Road, but many other roads all over the country. As such, the Ministry has gazetted regulations on the operations of the motorcycle industry, particularly targeting those involved in the passenger transport. The Ministry also held sensitization forums for county commissioners and traffic police officers on these regulations during the month of June. The NTSA is also developing a programme that will involve county commissioners, traffic police officers and NTSA staff to sensitize motor cycle riders on these regulations and road safety in general."
