    "content": "The Agreement on Fisheries Subsidies was adopted at the 12th World Trade Organisation (WTO) Ministerial Conference in Marrakesh, Morocco in June 2022. The Agreement’s main objective is to promote sustainable fishing by curbing harmful subsidies, protecting marine resources and ensuring fairness in the global fisheries trade. Article 2(5) of our Constitution, 2010, provides that the general rules of international law shall form part of the laws of Kenya. Article 2(6), further, states that any Treaty or Convention ratified by Kenya shall form part of the laws of Kenya under this Constitution. The Agreement seeks to balance the livelihood of fishing. It incorporates special and preferential treatment provisions, offering flexibility and extended implementation timelines for developing the least developed countries."
