Court halts Kiambu EPZ plan after locals raise concern
The conservatory order restrains the government and its agents from commencing construction of the EPZ project as declared in Legal Notice No. 201 issued by the Cabinet Secretary for Trade and Investments.
A court has halted the government's plan to establish an Export Processing Zone (EPZ) in Kiambu County to boost regional development, create jobs and attract foreign investment.
The Environment and Lands Court suspended the project, which was to be set up on a 324.5-acre piece of land surrendered by Del Monte Ltd in Thika East sub-county, following concerns by residents that the government had not involved them.
