applied as of 1 January 2020, pending entry into force of the EPA.

disruption of preferential trade conditions. On 2 March 2021, the
UK Parliament gave its consent for the EPA to be ratified, as the

MPs have taken issue with a clause in the new trade agreement between Kenya and the United Kingdom that bars Parliament from amending or expressing reservations on the pact.
