    "content": "establishing the East African Community allows the five national assemblies of the partner states to give their input in form of reports which may or may not be adopted by EALA. This is because of the supranational nature of the EAC Treaty with regard to constitutions of various states. Therefore, the issue that the Leader of Majority Party raised previously that this Assembly is becoming a conveyor belt, is not true per se . He is quite pretty aware that the East African Treaty is superior to the constitutions of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. Therefore, this assembly is quite in order as part of the stakeholder body in that regard. Finally, the other reason some members are giving that Tanzania does not agree with the movement of labour is not true. Tanzania is rightfully a member of the East African Community and it assents to all Bills and protocols that originate from Arusha. The only thing that Tanzania has rescind to cede is the issue of land which other member states of the EAC have said; the issue of land remains a national issue. Therefore, it is good for hon. Members, while contributing, to understand the domains under which the EAC has classified some of the factors of production. With those few remarks, I wish to urge hon. Members to support this report."
