    "content": "THAT, aware our schools, tertiary and research institutions in the country have accumulated thousands of old unused chemicals for many decades; further aware that such obsolete chemicals or substances will no longer be used for their intended purposes hence need to be discarded; concerned that disposal of those chemicals in a safe and in an environmental sound manner is unachievable due to lack of technology and associated high costs of the same and because those chemicals are stored inappropriately or disposed into the environment; concerned that continued accumulation of such obsolete chemicals impact directly or indirectly on the lives of the people living around them; cognisant of the fact that the usage, storage and disposal of chemicals is governed by different agencies as the country does not have a comprehensive legislation on chemical safety; this House resolves that the National Government develops an integrated national programme or policy to co- ordinate the different ministries and agencies that participate in the control of chemical safety to ensure that schools, teaching and research institutions across the country dispose of those obsolete chemicals and substances in a safe and environmentally sound manner."
