It is \u00a0taking place on November 27 and 28 at Julius Nyerere International \u00a0Convention in Dar es Salaam.\u00a0\u00a0Earlier , Uganda&#8217;s Energy Minister Hon.  Ruth Nankabirwa  told the symposium that the Host Government Agreements signed by both states required both governments to enact legislation that would facilitate the development of the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP)<br>Project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8221; I want to thank the government of Tanzania for passing this important legislation, in August 2021. Government of Uganda has also progressed with its enabling legislation which is now before Parliament and is expected to be passed into law before the end of November 2021.,&#8221; Nankabirwa stated adding that the  two legislations fulfil the major requirements on the side of the two states for the development of the EACOP. &#8220;We now eagerly await the full implementation of<br>the project by the oil companies,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-attachment-id=\"4664\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/president-museveni-expected-at-tanzania-uganda-oil-and-gas-symposium-in-dar-es-salaam\/img-20211127-wa0099\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG-20211127-WA0099.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1080,720\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG-20211127-WA0099\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG-20211127-WA0099.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG-20211127-WA0099.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG-20211127-WA0099-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG-20211127-WA0099.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG-20211127-WA0099.jpg 300w, https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG-20211127-WA0099.jpg 768w, https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG-20211127-WA0099.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Hon Nankabirwa together with PS Ministry of Energy Eng.
