    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, you may want to give us direction on whether the Committee should have asked the President to appear before it and ask him under what circumstances he issued Executive Order No.1 of 2017. This is because Mr. Rotich proceeded by notifying the general public that there was the East African Community Customs Management Act, which provides that you can go ahead and open a window when there is a crisis. At that time, the President of the Republic of Kenya under Executive Order No.1 of 2017, went ahead and said that there was a crisis in Kenya, and that we had to solve the problem. I am not sure whether we should be blaming the CS for the National Treasury and Planning, who went ahead and notified the public, having looked at the East African Community Customs Management Act. I am sure that the Co-Chair of the ad hoc Committee knows very well that those to deal with on this issue of operationalizing of the East African Community Customs Management Act are all Ministers of the East African Community (EAC). So, they are guided by certain legislation."
