"content": "Clauses 12 to 17 of this Bill define the five legal metrology standards to be used in our country. These are the Kenya Primary Legal Metrology Standards, the Kenya Primary Legal Metrology Reference Standards, the Secondary Reference Standards and the Working Standards. So, between Clauses 12 and 17 you will only find where the Bill defines the five legal metrology standards that are only available and will be used within the borders of the Republic of Kenya. Clauses 18 to 33 of this Bill, since I am trying to bring the clauses that talk about the same thing together, deal with offences that may be committed while using weighing or measuring equipment for trade. There are many unscrupulous businessmen. There are people who want to become rich, and there are people who want to steal from consumers by playing around or creating some defects in those machines. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, clauses 13 to 18 will deal with the various offences committed by those using the weighing or the measurement equipment for the single purpose of trade. These are clauses that will protect the consumers. These offenses include using unlawful units, possession of unauthorized weights or measures, using or having possession for trade, use of false or unjustified weights, failing to submit for verification your weighing equipment in use or obstruction of the inspection of those equipment‟s by relevant Government agencies, carrying out his duties and failing to submit the weighing equipment for what we call pattern approval."
