    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you. I had already started moving this Fourth and Fifth Report. Incidentally, we are producing reports faster than we can debate them because I am also about to lay the Sixth Report this afternoon as mandated by this House to do a weekly report on the quickly evolving situation. I will just go straight to a small part of the Fourth report. The Fifth Report is comprehensive about finance measures and that is the one which will require some more time. Mr. Speaker Sir, as of today, the Committee has held 52 sittings and engaged with several institutions at the national and county level. We have received numerous submissions on different areas. As of the date of the Fourth Report, some of the gains that the Committee had made are: One, the decision by the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) to adjust the expiry duration of all motor vehicle inspection bookings from 16th March 2020 to 30th May 2020, following intervention by the Committee. Many people in this sector had already complained that they were not able to get these bookings, and as such are not able to operate commercially. During our interactions, following a meeting on 30th April, 2020, we agreed with the NTSA that they publish a notice and the deed to that effect. Subsequently, all of those whose vehicle inspections had expired and could not operate on the roads and book inspections are required to book inspection through the Transport Integrated Management System (TIMS) account and present their booking slips. What was required is just those booking slips to enforcement officers. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
