This note summarizes a study on the implications of implementing strict information requirements for genetically modified (GM) commodities under Article 18.2(a) of the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety in Kenya. The results show that enforcement of strict “does contain” requirements, compared with the default “may contain” option, would create additional costs and challenges in the difficult implementation of import regulations.
It is divided into the following sections:
Introduction: Documentation requirements
Potential LMO-FFPs imported into or transited through Kenya and ports of entry/exit
Implications of import regulations and information requirements for Kenya
Conclusion: Strengthening regional approaches and reconsidering support
