Clause 7(a) is a clean-up, of the word “duty” and replacing it with the words “declaration fee”. There was an agreement with the African Union (AU) that all the member states should get a way of funding their activities. Clause 7(b) (6) is proposing to create a fund that will be managed in accordance with the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act. The section written says: “The monies in the Fund under sub-section (6) shall be used for payment of Kenya’s contributions to the African Union and any other international organization to which Kenya has a financial obligation”. In Clause 7 we are simply creating a fund which will finance Kenya’s obligations to the international bodies."}
