Senators approve three bills.
Senators approve three bills.
Members of the Senate have stamped their approval on three bills critical to some key sectors of Cameroon’s economy. Four members of government defended the bills at the Senate on Friday, June 26, 2020 during proceedings chaired by the President of the Senate, Marcel Niat Njifenji.
The bills adopted at the National Assembly include: that to authorize the President of the Republic to ratify the status of the Women Development Organisation in the Member States of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference; the bill to authorize the President of the Republic to proceed with Cameroon’s accession to the agreement of the Conservation of Gorillas and their Habitats, adopted in Paris (France) on 26 October 2007; and the bill to authorize the President of the Republic to ratify the Protocol to eliminate illicit trade in tobacco products and the bill to regulate statistical activity in Cameroon.
The Minister of Trade, Luc Magloire Mbarga Atangana, defended the bill to authorize the President of the Republic to ratify the Protocol to eliminate illicit trade in tobacco products, while his counterpart of Women’s Empowerment and the Family, Marie Therese Abena Ondoa, defended the bill to authorize the President of the Republic to ratify the status of the Women Development Organisation in the Member States of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference.
The Minister of Forestry and Wildlife, Jules Doret Ndongo, provided clarifications on the bill to authorize the President of the Republic to proceed with Cameroon’s accession to the agreement on the Conservation of Gorillas and their Habitats, adopted in Paris (France) on 26 October 2007. The ratification of the bill on the statute of the Women Development Organisation in the Member States of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference will contribute to improving the services provided by women’s management institutions through the cooperation envisaged therein. It is also expected to strengthen Cameroon’s commitment to women’s empowerment and consolidate its status as Champion of women’s cause.
Cameroon’s accession to the agreement on the Conservation Gorillas and their Habitats, adopted in Paris (France) on 26 October 2007, according to the explanatory note of the bill, will enable the country to benefit from the support of international partners in the implementation of measures intended to prevent human-gorilla conflicts through appropriate land-use planning. It will also enable Cameroon to develop cooperation programmers to raise awareness and understanding of gorilla conservation issues while providing cooperation in research and monitoring as part of efforts to control and prevent some infectious disease such as Ebola.
The ratification of the Protocol to eliminate illicit trade in tobacco products will enable Cameroon to benefit from international multisectoral assistance in this regard spanning from the cultivation, to the transportation, manufacture, storage and distribution of tobacco. These measures are designed to prevent, dissuade and detect illicit trade in tobacco.
With these bills cleared on the table of members of the Upper House of Parliament, the senators are now poised to scrutinize two other bills adopted at the National Assembly on Friday.
