Excise duty on eggs

Mwalimu-G

Elder Lister
This duty on table eggs from Uganda, especially, and Tanzania will put us on a collision course with our partners in EAC and COMESA.

The way to make our eggs competitive is by looking at ways of reducing the cost of production, especially the cost of feeds. Duty on imported eggs is populist, protectionist and does not solve the problem in our egg production. This at a time when the government is discouraging egg production by taxing chicken.
