    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I beg to move that the National Electronic Single Window System Bill, (National Assembly Bill No. 15 of 2021), be now read a Second Time. This Bill’s principal purpose and framework is to facilitate trade and commerce by introducing a national electronic single window system in which data and collection of information on transit of persons and goods is done. The Bill proposes the establishment of a national electronic single window system which shall serve as a single entry point and platform for any person(s) involved in trade and transport. The platform shall allow people to lodge documents electronically, including import or export documents, for processing and approval. The platform shall facilitate electronic payment for fees and levies due and owed to the Government on goods imported or exported for transactions submitted through the system. The main objective of the system shall be as follows: (a) To facilitate the single entry point to submission and receipt of documents or any other information required for trade facilitation; (b) To enable the synchronised processing of data or information; (c) To enable the standardisation of documents and single decision making for customs release and clearance; (d) To facilitate electronic transactions in trade and reduce legal and operational barriers to electronic transactions; and, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
