As I said, this is to delete the expression \"to a fine not exceeding two hundred shillings or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding one month\" and substitute therefor the expression \"on first conviction, to a fine of an amount equivalent to ten times the maximum statutory penalty of the offence to which the notification relates, and an amount equivalent to twenty times of the penalty for a second or subsequent conviction.\" The Bill provides for an increment in the penalties from Ksh200 to Ksh200,000. We are amending that to create a fine ten times the initial fine of what you are being charged with and sign the notification pleading guilty to pay the fine. This relates to instant fines. For instance, when I double park in the city, the policeman gives a notification of the Traffic Act I have violated. If I am liable for a fine of Ksh1000, all I need to do is sign that notification and pay the fine through electronic means or whichever way. That matter then ends there, or one appears in court to defend themselves. Should you fail to do so, you will be liable to pay ten times what you would have paid in fines. This will act as a deterrent for people who fail to pay fines. There is also the introduction of electronic modes of payments of such fines."},{"id":1398059,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1398059/?format=json","text_counter":422,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Kikuyu, UDA","speaker_title":"Hon.
