"content": "In my seconding this Motion, I wanted to say that in future, depending on the agenda that is on the Table, the House needs to appoint a few other Members, particularly from the relevant Committees to accompany these delegations to such meetings so that they can pick up those issues and see how we can move forward. This will ensure that the information does not remain in this report but is taken up by the House Committees to maximize on the benefits of some of these meetings. It is, therefore, important that some of these matters are taken very seriously because as a continent or globe, the trend is towards integration. For the East African Community (EAC) right now, we have moved into the Customs Union. Every other day, we have taken steps with a view to integrating the region. In the African Continent, the AU is also carrying out integration, hence the agenda of regional integration to be used as a building block for a united Africa. Due to the integration, it is important that we understand how the issues that happen in other countries will affect and how they can be addressed or prevented. Through flying, we have seen many outbreaks of epidemics which are very contagious. Therefore, we need to address health and economic matters as outlined in this report."
