Temporary Speaker, I beg to move the following Motion: THAT, this House adopts the Report of the Departmental Committee on Environment, Forestry and Mining on its consideration of the ratification of the Kigali Amendments on the Montreal Protocol on the Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, 4th May 2023 and, pursuant to the provisions of Section 8(4) of the Treaty Making and Ratification Act, 2012, approves the Ratification of the Kigali Amendments on the Montreal Protocol on the Substances that deplete the Ozone Layer. The Kigali Amendments on the Montreal Protocol on the Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was submitted to the National Assembly by the Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs in a Memorandum dated 29th November 2022 and subsequently committed to the Departmental Committee of Environment, Forestry and Mining to process and report to the House. The Ratification of the Kigali Amendments on the Montreal Protocol on the Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was adopted on 15th October 2016 in Kigali, Rwanda, and the commencement of the occasions and processes of the Protocol were approved by the Cabinet meeting of 12th May 2022. Pursuant to Article 118(1)(b) of the Constitution on Public Participation and Section 8(3) of the Treaty Making and Ratification Act of 2012, the Clerk of the National Assembly placed an advertisement on the two local dailies which are circulated nationally on 16th May 2022 requesting for submission of memorandum to the subject. By 8th January 2023, the Committee did not receive any submission from the public by the close of business on that day. The Committee held a consultative meeting in regard to the Ratification of the Kigali Amendments on the Montreal Protocol on the Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer with the Ministry Environment, Climate Change and Forestry; Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs and the Office of the Attorney- General. While considering the Convention, the Committee made the following observations: The Kigali Amendments were adopted by the parties on the 28th Meeting of the Montreal Protocol on 15th October 2016 in Kigali, Rwanda to phase down Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) while Kenya was ratifying the Montreal Protocol because it was yet to ratify the Kigali Amendment Protocol which was yet to enter into force in January, 2019"
