• 16 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for your guidance. After we considered the Bills, the Committee resolved to await the reintroduction of the Bills in the Fourth Assembly of the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA) and thereafter once the Bills are brought before the Committee, we will look at them in depth, since most of them had lapsed and were waiting re-introduction in the Fourth Assembly. view

• 16 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Therefore, I will take some time to discuss the Protocol. The Committee considered the East African Community Protocol on Cooperation in Metrological Services and noted that the Protocol is premised on Article 5 of the Treaty for the establishment of the East African Community providing for the objectives of the Community which are among others, to develop policies and programmes aimed at widening and deepening the cooperation among partner states.

• 16 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: It is also very important for us to share this information because it actually works as early warning system that can be used to avert calamities. We can also use the information that is shared to give advisories and alerts for severe weather and extreme climate events for purposes of ensuring food security. If one country is able to detect that in another country or even our country we are going to have severe drought, then we are able to put in place measures to see how we can deal with issues, especially of food security across the region. Sometimes ... view

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 ... view
• 16 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wish to thank all Members who have ably and aptly put their comments on this Motion. It is very interesting that most of them are looking forward to the re-introduction of most of the Bills now that EALA is back in session and they are even anticipating debate on some of the matters that will come forth. It is also important that most Members have spoken to the issues of cooperation and collaboration by members states. We do hope that on mattes to do with weather and sharing of information and data on ... view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Report that has been tabled before this House. I just want to make two points clearly. I will even read from the Committee Report whether its findings answer the questions that they have stated here. Question number one is: To establish whether the sugar imported during the 2017 duty free window was fit for human consumption. On that issue, in my own statement, I was not even specific on when. My question was based on what the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National ... view
