    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I wish to second the National Electronic Single Window System Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 15 of 2021). This Bill was read the First Time on Tuesday, 8th June 2021. It was, thereafter, committed to the Departmental Committee on Trade, Industry and Co-operatives, pursuant to Standing Order No.127 having been recommitted from the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning. The National Electronic Single Window System Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 15 of 2021) seeks to provide a framework to facilitate trade and commerce using the single window system. This is done through the establishment of the National Electronic Single Window System and prescribing a framework for its operations. The Bill seeks to establish a National Electronic Single Window System known as the Kenya Trade Net. In terms of what the Bill seeks to achieve, the electronic system allows parties, for example, Kenya Ports Authority, Customs, agents as well as all actors in logistic and transport to lodge standardising information and documents with a single entry point to fulfil all import and export related requirements. Other objectives include provision of efficiency in trade transactions by providing a central platform where traders can get services and permits from all Government agencies that are involved in international trade by making applications through one single system. It also ensures standardisation and faster processing of trade documentation. 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."
