"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I take this opportunity to thank the Committee on Environment and Natural Resources for coming up with these two candidates through a rigorous vetting exercise. I knew Mr. John Kioli when I was the first Minister for Environment in this country. Since that time I have known him of going round and encouraging people to plant trees. He has been doing that even long before we knew about climate change. The Committee made a very wise decision and resisted dictation by the international organizations. This is because people form cartels and try to influence the appointment of their friends to these committees. I like what Hon. Amina has said. The Committee stuck to its guns and appointed people it felt deserve the positions instead of being dictated to. I do not know Mr. Suresh Patel, but I have no doubt the Committee did due diligence and came up with good names. I am urging the House to approve these recommendations, the rejected names and the ones that are approved by the Committee. With those few remarks, I support."
