Industrialists have now moved to court after their pleas to have the ban on plastic bags suspended were ignored.
In a petition filed before the High Court, the Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM) accuses Environment Cabinet Secretary Judi Wakhungu and Nema director general Geoffrey Wahungu of ignoring requests for dialogue as well as failing to consult stakeholders as required by law before declaring plans to impose the ban.
