I have consulted the hon. Attorney-General together with the Mover of the Bill, hon. Odhiambo-Mabona, and we have agreed that I withdraw these particular amendments and they be deleted from the amendments, that is both 11A and 11B. However, we are saying that the Committee on regional integration is a very important committee to this House, and we should amend the Standing Orders to provide for it, so that treaties will be scrutinized by Parliament in future."}
