KHRC and six other CSOs have appealed against the government’s decision to backdate Housing Fund taxes contained in the Finance Act, 2023.
On July 28, the Court of Appeal lifted the injunctions halting the enactment of the Act.
As a result, on August 4, government bodies, including the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), declared the retroactive application of taxes starting from July 1.
In our appeal, we are also requesting the halt of the Court of Appeal’s ruling due to the immediate risks posed to lives and livelihoods.
