UnfairRepresent 05/31/21 12:02:24 PM #1:	Police in Kenya are continuing to crack down on potato growers and have arrested four people breaching the Irish potatoes regulation Act. The Potato Regulation Act 2019 states that potatoes should be packaged in not more than 50kgs bags and local police forces have been carrying out checks on farms and transportation vehicles. On Saturday, two lorries which were carrying potatoes in outlawed bags were intercepted in Nyandarua County along the Nyeri Nyahururu highway. One vehicle was carrying 150 bags and another contained 160 extended bags, according to Ndaragwa police chief Nancy Jerobom. The regulation states that the required weight of a potato bag should be 50 kilograms but these two lorries were carrying bags ranging from 60 to over 70 kilograms, Jerobom said. We arrested four people including the drivers and will be arraigned in court for relevant charges. She further warned traders as well as farmers to follow the regulations to avoid facing penalties. Speaking at the Ndaragwa police station, Deputy Director of Agriculture in Nyandarua County Hannah Njenga said that each Sub County in Kenya had set up weighing machines to assist farmers and traders package potatoes within the allowed limit. The seizure in Nyandarua County comes after the Agriculture and Food Authority (AFA) launched a nationwide crackdown last month to ensure the new regulations were adhered to. The crackdown will extend to Nakuru, Nairobi, Narok, Mombasa and other potato planting counties including major markets, the AFA confirmed.

Tenlaar 06/05/21 4:26:20 PM #25:	Previously, the court heard, brokers opted for exploitative packaging, weighing more than 120 kilos per bag that were bought at a general price without considering its weight. The authority argued that the directive was also in line with the International Labour Organisations Maximum Weight Convention No.127 which stipulated that the permissible weight which may be transported manually by one adult should not be more than 55 kilogrammes. Further, the court heard that the Convention which came into force in Kenya on March 10, 1970, also prohibits the manual transportation of a load which by reason of its weight is likely to jeopardise the health and safety of the transporter. https://www.standardmedia.co.ke/nairobi/article/2001398982/potato-packaging-to-remain-at-50-kilos-court-rules That all seems reasonable to me. <cite>Tenlaar posted [p:954680877] in 4 men arre...
