    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the experts on the area of democratic accommodation of ethnic, cultural and religious diversity made presentations to the Committee, whose views were also exchanged at the Parliamentary Assembly. In the presentations for the Committee of Experts, it was noted that within the ACP States, such diversity as ethnic, religious and cultural diversity has brought in a lot of challenges such as political exclusion, laws that exclude others and skewed development. It was also noted that the EU countries, having gone through this much earlier than the ACP countries, were now able to institutionalize devolution, education and employment opportunities, specifically meant for minorities. Laws have been prepared to safeguard that. It was, therefore, discussed and agreed that there was need for a North-South interaction so that we can learn from one another as the ACP-EU Parliamentary Group and the countries that are involved. The same Committee exchanged views on the political situation in the ACP and EU countries. Specifically, we exchanged views on the situation in Fiji, Sudan, DRC, Mauritius and Zimbabwe."
