    "content": "(a) by renumbering the existing provision as subsection (1); (b) by deleting the word “foreign” appearing immediately after the word “every”; (c) by inserting the following new subsections immediately after the proposed new subsection (1) — (2) A conformity assessment body established in Kenya and that seeks to be accredited by a foreign accreditation body shall obtain an exemption from the Service in the prescribed manner and upon payment of a prescribed fee. (3) A foreign conformity assessment body operating in Kenya that is accredited by a foreign accreditation body shall obtain an exemption from accreditation by the Service in the prescribed manner and upon payment of a prescribed fee (4) A conformity assessment body operating in Kenya that is accredited by a foreign accreditation body shall, within three months of the commencement of this Act, apply to the Service for accreditation or exemption as the case may be. The justification is that we are trying to make it mandatory for all conformity assessment bodies to be accredited by the Kenya National Accreditation Service. Further, the assessment body that is already accredited outside the country may, on application and payment of a fee, be exempted by the Kenya National Accreditation Service and this is in line with the principles of mutual recognition under international laws. Thank you."
