Speaker, I hope you will protect me from his harassment. I want Members to understand this important Agreement. It is very sad that we are very few people in the House. The Agreement requires neighbouring countries to ensure border co-operation so that goods can be inspected once and they move. We do not want a situation whereby, for example, Kenya inspects goods then the same goods are inspected by Uganda. That will take extra days. The Agreement encourages us to co-operate with all the neighbouring countries. The Agreement also binds the country to establish a single window system for filing import and export documents. This is what is happening in Kenya now. Through The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
