The Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources got seized of the complaint by the residents of Greatwall Estate in Athi River through their representative Erdemann Property Limited through a letter dated 22nd January, 2018 to the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) and other various stakeholders, including the National Assembly, requesting for the intervention on the pollution by London Distillers (Kenya) Limited. The residents requested NEMA to thoroughly investigate London Distillers (Kenya) Limited and firmly ask them to adhere to all measures regarding air quality and effluent discharge as stipulated in the Air and Water Quality Regulations. NEMA, in a letter dated 6th February 2017, had written to London Distillers (Kenya) Limited ordering closure of the Company pursuant to the Environmental Management and Coordination Act (EMCA) Cap 387(2)(3). This was after the company failed to comply with the three improvement orders issued to them on 6th May 2016, 21st July 2016 and finally 8th September 2016. Despite the orders issued by NEMA, London Distillers (Kenya) Limited was yet to reduce environmental pollution a year later, according to Erdemann Property Limited."
