    "content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, the fish in Lake Victoria mostly breeds at the entry point of River Sio and River Nile and then spreads throughout EAC. The fish has no passport at all. It is neither Kenyan, Tanzanian or Ugandan. I urge the Committee, through EALA and the respective Legislative Assemblies, to have fishing protocols. This will allow our fishermen to move from one point to another while observing typical fishing practices. It will entrench and enhance cooperation and the good intentions of the founders of the EAC. Hon. Temporary Speaker, we have talked about non-tariff barriers. Tanzania is notorious, but Uganda is more flexible. Can we have a mechanism to allow free-trade between Kenya and Uganda? As clearly indicated here, East African Trade only accounts for less than 10 per cent compared to 90 per cent. We have more room to improve the EAC and trade more, if we get serious. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support the Report."
