    "content": "enable the region develop a regional meteorological institution where now we can all share that information as the East Africa Community. The Committee saw that the Protocol seeks to mandate the partner states to co-operate in data processing and analysis and to exchange metrological data and information. Also, the aviation industry could benefit from the information and data by using it for planning and scheduling of flights to avert a lot of inconveniences to travellers across the region. The Protocol also provides that the partner states shall harmonise their laws and policies on meteorology once this House passes and adopts the Protocol. While considering the Protocol, the Committee noted contents of the memorandum to the effect that the processing and analysis of data was important for safety of navigation and that it was only through a reliable meteorological data that navigation of data processing was possible. As I conclude, it is important to note that partner states are expected to co-operate. I must say that Kenya has been doing a fantastic job in terms of collaborating and co-operating with the other member states. It is our hope as the National Assembly in Kenya that our partner states will also co-operate not only on this Protocol but on the many issues that are agreed on at the council level and even by the Heads of State. I have no doubt in my mind that Kenya will co-operate and will be more than willing to share much more information and even help in terms of putting up the requisite institution. So, the Committee resolved to support the Protocol as it is since it will help in fostering better regional integration in matters related to meteorological services. Therefore, the Committee recommends that this House ratifies the East Africa Community Protocol on Cooperation of Meteorological Services. I beg to move and ask Hon. Richard Onyancha… Sorry, Ochanda will second the Motion."
