    "content": "Finally, I wish to speak on the Agreement for the establishment of the East African Standby Force which is an important element of what we are ratifying here today. The Agreement was signed on 24th June 2014 by Kenya and nine other East African countries. It replaces the MOU which established the East African Standby Brigade. The East African Standby Force (EASF) attained full operational capability in December, 2014. Rwanda has ratified the EASF Agreement and Kenya validated its forces in September, 2014. It is important that we do the ratification of EASF, MDP and the Protocol today as Kenya remains one of the last country in the Community to ratify these protocols. The National Assembly’s role is protected and this is why we are here to pass and ratify these protocols in accordance with the Constitution."
