KAM protests against parts of proposed tobacco laws
The proposed amendments to tobacco laws could lead to a higher cost of doing business, a conflicting regulatory framework, and growth in illicit trade.
The Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM) has pushed back against sections of the Tobacco Control (Amendment) Bill, 2024 currently before the Senate, citing risks of a higher cost of doing business, a conflicting regulatory framework, and growth in illicit trade.
The manufacturers’ lobby said that the regulation should focus on controlling tobacco use and enabling informed consumer decision-making rather than adopting outright prohibitions.
