    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance to contribute to this Motion. I want to congratulate, Hon. Naisula for bringing this Report. It is timely and as you know EAC is an organ whose objective among others is to develop policies and programmes that can be shared widely across all the partner states. Among them is cooperation, sharing of information and sharing of research that has been done and many other things. That is part of the objectives of the EAC. Meteorological services are very important. If you get the right information at the right time, it can prevent a lot of disasters. For example, meteorological department will always be advising on any disasters like heavy rainfall, bad weather, ocean disasters or if there will be a problem in the air. All this will be shared. It is, therefore, very important that we adopt this Report. I support it. The Protocol found in Article 10 of the Treaty provides for partner states to collect and disseminate information across East Africa. Sharing information is key in any given issue. If we do not have the relevant information and research, then we will not be able to do the right when planning for our development. As a Member alluded, it is very important to share information and empower our youth, women and people living with disability. By us supporting this Protocol, we will be able to strengthen the partnership among the EAC. I want to support and leave it at that. Thank you so much."
