• 25 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I just wanted to confirm to Mr. Shakeel that, indeed, the requirement for licensing to ride motor vehicles is already in the Act.

• 25 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, have you proposed? If the matter has been proposed, I would beg to oppose this amendment and, perhaps, to also explain to hon. Members of the Committee that--- view
• 25 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to oppose this amendment and explain why. What is done and I believe the negotiated position was, first of all, we were to remove what was already provided in the Bill which read, for the benefit of hon.

• 25 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, listening to hon. Members, I would also want to persuade the Chair of the Committee that we put the lives of Kenyans ahead of other considerations. Even driving for eight hours is exhaustive. If we amend this clause to provide for 12 hours, we will be encouraging people to even sack some of the drivers they have. They will be saying that they only need one driver, instead of two. I would rather we retain the eight hours. I would even have gone further to say “not so-many continuous hours”. That is the standard in ... view
