"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, this is a very good amendment but I would request the Chair to consider a further amendment to Clause 47. One of the biggest problems we have in this country is improper loading through which people damage road surfaces. We have cases where somebody is carrying reinforcement bars and he scratches the road surface hence damaging the road. Another cause of road damage is where people erect illegal bumps. I wish the Chair would consider including those offences here. I speak from experience because we have just had constructed roads in our constituency. Because of cases of people dragging reinforcement bars on the road and improper loading, the roads is damaged. People are erecting illegal bumps and damaging the road. This should be made an offence so that those responsible can be penalised."
