    "content": "well. Some of these legislations are being used by other African countries and they are already implementing them and are doing very well. There is an aspect also which has not been seen which is addressed in this Report; the issue of climate change and global warming. These are things which are being taken for granted in Kenya. We are now facing drought prolonged from December. We are now beginning to receive rainfall. This afternoon, we received a report that in Mandera there are heavy floods which have swept away buses and caused a lot of disaster. This is part of climate change. As the Kenyan Government we should start giving it more and better attention so that we can protect ourselves through mitigation and adopting. As we now go forward in terms of the development of the Pan-African Parliament, the issue of legislative status of Pan-African Parliament is something which we want to recommend, that our Parliament adopts so that we can help Members of Parliament who are full-time employees to this task of representing Kenya. With those few remarks, I want to join in recommending that this be adopted. Thank you."
