• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, you realize that it is not only about the matatu areas that we are talking about. We are talking about the transport sector at large. We are talking about the airlines where we do not regulate fares. We are talking about all manner of transport. If we as a Government attempt to regulate fares, it will mean that we are going against the policy on liberalization that the same Government made. That is why I am saying that I have noted the concerns and we shall consult on possibilities of managing the process. view
• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is why I said that there has to be consultation.

(a) Yes, I am aware that one of the major reasons for traffic jams on most Nairobi roads is the failure by matatu drivers to stop at designated bus stops to allow passengers to alight. (b) In order to contain this menace, the Ministry is undertaking the following measures:- (i) enhanced enforcement of traffic rules and regulations particularly on obstruction when picking and dropping passengers at non-designated areas and passengers boarding at non-designated areas; (ii) road safety campaigns geared towards educating matatu drivers on the dangers of stopping at the non-designated bus stops; ... view
• 31 Jul 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as you are aware my Ministry is now undertaking the preparation of the National Transport and Safety Authority Bill and it will come to the House for purpose of getting your input. The bit of implementation which we do through the traffic police after we have done the policy has been a challenge. We will continue to press the Traffic Department to enforce the laws that we have made. view
• 31 Jul 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is very well thought. We will have an opportunity as a House to contribute to the Traffic (Amendment) Bill that is about to come here. view
