    "content": "THAT, Clause 2 of the Bill be amended– (a) by inserting the following new definition in the proper alphabetical sequence – ―Board‖ means the Board of the Agency as constituted under section 6‖; (b) in the definition of ―Cabinet Secretary‖ by deleting the word ―international‖ appearing immediately before the word ―trade‖; (c) in the definition of ―domestic like product‖ by inserting the word ―product‖ immediately after the word ―produced‖; (d) in the definition of ―domestic market‖ by inserting the words ―including the EAC as a single customs territory‖ immediately after the word ―country‖; (e) in the definition of ―EAC‖ – (i) by inserting the word ―the‖ immediately after the word ―means‖; and (ii) by inserting the words ―as a single customs territory‖ immediately after the word ―community‖. Clause 2 is about definitions. We are streamlining some of the definitions such as that of the East African Community (EAC) by inserting the words, ―as a single customs territory‖ after the word, ―community‖. Kenya is part of the EAC and we need to treat it as a single customs territory in terms of the application of these remedies. Amendments in (b) are on the definition of ―Cabinet Secretary.‖ The Bill currently defines the Cabinet Secretary to be the one in charge of international trade but we are saying he should be the Cabinet Secretary for trade matters as a whole."
