Kenya enacts the Conflict of Interest Act, 2025: What businesses need to know

The Conflict of Interest Act 11 of 2025 (the Act) was assented to on 30 July 2025 and came into force on 19 August 2025, repealing the Public Officer Ethics Act. The Act establishes a robust framework for preventing, identifying and addressing conflicts of interest in the public service. It redefines the boundaries between public duty and private interest, introduces stricter prohibitions, and grants wider enforcement powers to the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (the EACC). While designed to regulate public officers, the Act’s provisions have direct and far-reaching implications for businesses that supply goods and services to Government, participate in public procurement, engage in public-private partnerships, or hire former public officials.

Unconscionability as a defence to on-demand guarantees

On-demand performance guarantees are a staple in construction and engineering projects due to their commercial function of ‘as good as cash’ security, providing employers with prompt and reliable security if contractors fail to meet their obligations. Demand guarantees are designed to be autonomous instruments. The guarantor’s obligation to pay arises upon presentation of a demand that complies with the guarantee’s terms, regardless of disputes under the underlying contract (the independence principle). The independence principle is the main charm of demand guarantees, as the South African courts have consistently upheld the independence of these guarantees, with fraud by the beneficiary being the only recognised exception to payment.

PAJA now, argue later: SARS’ decision not to suspend payment can be subject to review

It is well-established that the function carried out by the South African Revenue Service (SARS) is administrative in nature. SARS’ actions are accordingly subject to the right of a taxpayer to just administrative action as provided for in section 33 of the Constitution, and generally also the legality requirement found in the common law. In this regard there have been some cases where taxpayers have successfully challenged SARS’ decisions under the Promotion of Administrative Justice Act 3 of 2000 (PAJA). The recent case of Ferreria v Commissioner, SARS ZAGPPHC 47 is one such instance.
