Successfully defended AFA's mandate to implement Crops Act.

We represented the Agriculture and Food Authority in constitutional Petition by Edible Oils Products Limited and 10 Others Vs Agriculture and Food Authority & 3 Others, where the Petitioners sought conservatory orders restraining AFA and other Respondents from further implementation, administration, application and/or enforcement of section 18 of the crops act 2013, regulations 8 & 29 in the third schedule, 30, 34 & 35 of the crops (nuts and oil) regulations 2020 pending the hearing and determination of the Petition. If the Petition succeeded, AFA would have lost the mandate to implement the regulations.
