Item 2nd WCO ESA Regional Research Conference Nairobi, Kenya 23rd and 24th November 2017: Impacts and Implication of Trade Facilitation Agreement and the WCO Mercator Programme to the ESA region(WCO ESA, 2017-11-23) World Customs Organization East & Southern Africa Regional Office for Capacity BuildingThe Governing Council of the World Customs Organization, East and Southern Africa region, established the regional research programme aiming to build institutional capacity and the body of knowledge in customs through research. The objective of the programme is to encourage research on topical themes for customs in East and Southern Africa. The programme also aims to develop a body of knowledge to guide the decision-making process concerning trade facilitation and regional economic integration in the Region. It is also hoped that the research programme and the results from findings from the research initiatives will assist countries in sharing experiences, ideas, knowledge, and information on new innovations to improve Customs operations while creating new inventions to continue modernizing customs to ease facilitation of trade in East and Southern Africa. The envisaged output from this process will always be the publication of an e-book consisting of a consolidation of papers presented during the conference. A Regional Research Panel was established by the ROCB for the overall coordination of the conference. The Panel comprises representatives from the ROCB, WCO Research Unit, RTCs, Experts (including from academia), and other stakeholders.Item Abdi Aidid Ali -v- Commissioner of Investigations & Enforcement(Kenya Law, 2019) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem The African Continental Free Trade Area(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2020-07-27) World BankThe African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) agreement will create the largest free trade area in the world, measured by the number of countries participating. The pact will connect 1.3 billion people across 55 countries with a combined GDP valued at $3.4 trillion. It has the potential to lift 30 million people out of extreme poverty by 2035. But achieving its full potential will depend on putting in place significant policy reforms and trade facilitation measures. The scope of the agreement is considerable. It will reduce tariffs among member countries and cover policy areas, such as trade facilitation and services, as well as regulatory measures, such as sanitary standards and technical barriers to trade. It will complement existing subregional economic communities and trade agreements by offering a continent-wide regulatory framework and by regulating policy areas—such as investment and intellectual property rights protection—that have not been covered in most subregional agreements. The African Continental Free Trade Area: Economic and Distributional Effects quantifies the long-term implications of the agreement for growth, trade, poverty reduction, and employment. Its analysis goes beyond that in previous studies that have largely focused on tariff and nontariff barriers in goods—by including the effects of services and trade facilitation measures, as well as the distributional impacts on poverty, employment, and wages of female and male workers. It is designed to guide policy makers as they develop and implement the extensive range of reforms needed to realize the substantial rewards that the agreement offers. The analysis shows that full implementation of AfCFTA could boost income by 7 percent, or nearly $450 billion, in 2014 prices and market exchange rates. The agreement would also significantly expand African trade—particularly intraregional trade in manufacturing. In addition, it would increase employment opportunities and wages for unskilled workers and help close the wage gap between men and women.Item Airkenya Express Limited v Commissioner of Customs & Border Control(Kenya Law, 2020) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Arrow Hi-Fi (E.A) Limited -v- Commissioner Of Customs Border Control(Kenya Law, 2020) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Auto Industries Limited -v- Commissioner of Customs Border Control(Kenya Law, 2021) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Auto Industries Limited -v- Commissioner of Customs Border Control(Kenya Law, 2021) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Autoexpress Limited -v- Commissioner of Customs Border Control(Kenya Law, 2018) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Automark Industries Kenya Limited-Vs-Commissioner of Customs Border Control Tat No. 139 of 2021 Judgement(Kenya Law, 2021) Kenya Law: Tax Appeals TribunalItem Aval Trading Limited -v- Commissioner of Domestic Taxes(Kenya Law, 2020) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Baitul Investment Limited -v- Commissioner Of Investigations And Enforecement(Kenya Law, 2018) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem BASF East Africa Limited -v- Commissioner of Customs and Border Control(Kenya Law, 2020) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Bidco Oil Refeneries Limited -v- Commissioner of Customs Services(Kenya Law, 2015) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Bidcoro Africa Limited -v- Commissioner of Customs Border Control(Kenya Law, 2021) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Blueline Auto Tyres Limited -v- Commissioner of Investigations & Enforcement(Kenya Law, 2019) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Boleyn International Ltd -v- Commissioner of Investigations and Enforcement(Kenya Law, 2018) Kenya Law: Tax Appeal TribunalItem Bon Borehole Drillers Limited Vs Commissioner of Investigations Enforcement Tat No. 262 of 2020 -Judgement(Kenya Law, 2020) Kenya Law: Tax Appeals Tribunal
