The National Assembly of Kenya approved a motion that ratified the EU-Kenya Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) signed by the two parties on 18 December 2023. The ratification by Kenya of the EPA comes at a short distance from the deliberation of the EU Parliament, which during its plenary session of 29 February, gave its consent to the EPA to officially enter into force for the EU. Kenya, on the other hand, had to follow its own ratification process according to its national laws, and specifically, according to the provisions of the Treaty making and ratification act No. 45 of 2012, which foresees that the Cabinet Secretary responsible for matters relating to the Treaty to be ratified must submit it accompanied by a memorandum to the Speaker of the National Assembly for deliberation.
