On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. What I was telling the November 13, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3467 Assistant Minister is that he should not change the whole colours of the matatus. But he should have a particular colour on the sides for different routes. If it is for Kayole, it should be written Kayole-Muthurwa, Umoja-Muthurwa and Embakasi Village- Muthurwa. That would solve the problem.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Dandora Dumpsite has been a health hazard for a long time. So many promises have been made before by different agencies. This time round, I would wish to know what specific steps the Assistant Minister is taking to help the sick people in Dandora due to the gases emitted from the dump site?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first and foremost, there is no rehabilitation at the Dandora Dump Site. Again, just recently, the officials from the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) came for an exercise at Kariobangi Estate and the residents there refused to allow the Ministry to bring the transfer station. I really think that the Assistant Minister is not actually aware of what is happening as far as the issue of the Dandora Dump Site is concerned! He should consult again so that he can give a comprehensive answer. That is because what I actually want to know is: What is ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Bill. I wish to point out some issues that I feel should be attended to by the Ministry. There are proposals on private- public partnership policy that, if speeded up, are going to increase investment by private entrepreneurs. In Nairobi, there are roads that should be built immediately, so that the eastern part of Nairobi can be opened up. For example, Outer Ring Road is a very important road in eastern Nairobi. If we had the policy of public-private partnership, some private investors could have invested in roads like this ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the new dates. However, I wish to let you know that this road is the gateway to Kayole Estate and Soweto areas which have suffered a great loss of business because of non-completion of this road. This road also could ease traffic jam on the notorious Outer Ring road. Therefore, the quick completion of this road will benefit the people of this area. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is a tendency of contractors who do not complete their work in time, being awarded contracts in Embakasi. I am requesting the Assistant Minister, through the ...
