Low levels of detecting consignments of Phytosanitary concern at Mombasa sea port

Creation of Container Freight Stations (CFS) to decongest the Port.
Port processes - Containers are taken to the CFS before regulatory process is completed
Distances between CFS - There are 18 CFS within 25 Km radius
Low staff levels
Lack of impending arrival consignment data
Other government Agency procedures

15. Conclusion
There is a direct relationship between availability of consignment information and levels of detecting consignments of phytosanitary concerns
Availability of consignment information to NPPO can help in improvement of inspection system
Availability and access to consignment information can help NPPO to seal revenue leakages

16. Recommendation
NPPO should have a method of obtaining import consignment information before its arrival
Interagency collaboration for key government agencies (The primary import data owners)
Where there are systems in place, system integration is recommended to reduce human interventions
