Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to move that this House adopts Sessional Paper No. 5 of 2014 on National Policy for Peace Building and Conflict Management, laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, 31st July 2014. In moving the adoption of this Motion, I just want to say that it has come at the right time when we have quite a number of conflicts in the country. We have taken too long to come up with such a Sessional Paper. From pre-independence and post-independence we have had quite a number of conflicts in this country. A policy that addresses issues of conflict management and peace building was extremely necessary as early as 1963."}
