Transport sector calls for stricter controls and effective sanctions

Stakeholders in the transport sector are calling for reinforced controls and more effective sanctions to combat illegal transportation activities. Concerns have been raised that while inspectors perform checks and issue reports, many infractions do not result in economic penalties, which reportedly encourages continued illegal activity and discourages inspectors.

Following discussions with the Director of Transport, there is a commitment to increase oversight. Additionally, the debate regarding the regulation of transport applications continues, with stakeholders emphasizing that existing regulations must be effectively enforced and controlled before new ordinances for app-based services are implemented.
