Kenya: Court of Appeal Upholds Affordable Housing Levy Law

The Kenyan Court of Appeal has dismissed two appeals that challenged the legality of the Affordable Housing Act, 2024, and the associated Affordable Housing Levy. The ruling upholds the statutory framework and the collection of the housing levy in the country.

The legal challenges had sought to overturn the legislation, but the appellate court's decision clears the way for the continued implementation of the government's affordable housing program.
