    "content": "The Report on this Bill touches on classification of roads which has created confusion in this country. I want to confess that classification remains a problem. I tried to apply the First Schedule of this proposed Bill over the weekend. I wanted to see whether I can identify roads in my constituency. I must confess it was not easy. In particular, classification of roads which are supposed to be Class D and placing them under the counties is, to me, something the Committee should consider revising. Another thing I want to point out is that there is need in this country to have a special fund that will attend to emergencies that should not put into consideration the classifications we have. I have in mind one bridge in my constituency in a place called Mahigaini that has brought to life a very important road that is used by lorries going to quarry. Quarrying is a very vital economic activity. For six months, that road is not being used. It is supposed to be a county road. Therefore, the county is supposed to look for money to do that bridge."
