    "content": "wealth. This is through realizing and understanding how the producers survive and the kind of suffering that has gone particularly to the small-scale producers. This Motion comes very handy because it is calling upon the Government not to sign these agreements before the necessary preparations are done. We need to be seized of this matter as a House. What has happened in the past, and this Motion helps even those other Committees, is that we have delegations discussing very important issues at the regional, continental and international level. I have seen, particularly in the last Parliament that those reports are just presented, discussing casually, adopted by the House, but if you call attention of the individual Members, and more critically Members of those relevant Committees, which checkmate the Executive and watchdog on the resources so allocated, they will barely have the capacities. Therefore, in the process of building these capacities, we would wish, as a delegation, and I say this because I have consulted with the other colleagues and I can see hon. Abdikadir nodding across the Floor, to have a first in terms of tabling a report with very detailed communication and the executive summary that would make the Members understand what this assembly is about, namely, the ACP-EU and what the EPAs are about. If you go to any capital of Europe like London, Berlin and Brussels, you will have coffee, tea or some other product that is branded as a product of French or the English, but it is simply because we produce our bulk raw materials for value addition across the seas. These are issues that need to be redressed and overhauled, so that our own strength is used to strengthen the citizens of the ACP republics. Therefore, I support this Motion and thank Dr. Laboso for the timely submission of this request, so that consciousness carries the day as we engage with other nations. I strongly support."
