Reading Time: < 1 minute

National Assembly Speaker, Baleka Mbete, says she will speed up processes in Parliament which deal with problems facing the taxi industry in the country.

Mbete earlier met with the Faraday Taxi Association in Johannesburg to discuss challenges faced by the taxi industry.

In recent months, taxi-related violence made headlines with several incidents of rapes and killings having occurred across the country.

Mbete held discussions with various stakeholders in the taxi industry aimed at assisting them in finding ways in which Parliament can contribute in addressing the challenges that plague their industry.

“The issues really would be very well known and historically captured by those in Parliament that work in the portfolio of transport and I would interact with them see how far they have gone and where are the areas where one can come in and assist and give support in whatever way.”
