There are many such challenges and the central banks in the region are ready to tackle them in totality to develop more convergence. Honorable members, as I conclude, I see enormous opportunities for East Africans as we move ahead. As East Africans, we need to tap and consolidate these opportunities.
Certainly the way ahead will bring about legal and legislative reforms that need to be embraced in the road to a single currency. I thank you honorable Chair for your kind attention and wish you fruitful deliberations over the next two days of your meeting. BIS Review 26/2010  3
