Africa-Press<\/a> – Tanzania<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>ABOUT 13,968 vehicles have been inspected since a new system was introduced by the government in the country, contributing to the government a sum of 4.9bn\/-,<\/p>\n

Deputy Minister for Industry and Trade, Exaud Kigahe told the Parliament.<\/p>\n

He said that since the inspection started on March 1, 2021 in the Port of Dar es Salaam which is conducted by the Tanzania Bureau of Standards (TBS), many customers are satisfied and enjoy the process of inspecting used vehicles entering the country.<\/p>\n

Mr Kigahe cited reasons for terminating the previous inspection system of used vehicles abroad (PVoC), including the challenges encountered during the implementation of the system as well as the expected benefits after implementing the domestic inspection system (DI).<\/p>\n

\u201cThe PVoC\u2019s challenges include inefficiency, high inspection and testing costs, lack of agents in all areas and agents failing to conduct audits properly,\u201d he said in response to a question from Member of Parliament Neema Mgaya (Special Seats-CCM).<\/p>\n

Mr Kigahe cited other reasons as loss of foreign exchange, loss of jobs by Tanzanians and failure to build the capacity of inspection facilities and inspection professionals and the difficulty of catering to small entrepreneurs who buy a wide range of low value products.<\/p>\n

In her question, the lawmaker had explained that the government had invested 20bn\/- for building motor vehicle inspection infrastructure in the country.<\/p>\n

She, thus, wanted to know the reasons why the government changed the inspection system.<\/p>\n

Responding to a supplementary question as to where defective vehicles were being sent or Tanzania has been turned into a dumping ground for such cars, the deputy minister said that not a single customer had complained of importing defective cars into the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
