"content": "Section 14(2) of East Africa Community (EAC) Customs Management Act 2004 allows the importation of goods duty free by a member State upon a phenomenon being declared a national disaster. On 12th May 2017, the CS for the National Treasury issued a Gazette Notice No. 4536 and allowed the importation of sugar and powdered milk duty free from the world market to mitigate the escalating prices of sugar and milk and guarantee availability of these commodities to the public. This Gazette Notice was to remain in force up to 31st August 2017. It said that sugar which would be imported by any person would be duty free but there were specifications that we had to import 9,000 metric tonnes of milk."
