Acting KEBS Managing Director Bernard Nguyo.

Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) has said it has not banned the importation of used motor vehicle spare parts.

Mr Nguyo made the clarification at Pride Inn Flamingo resort in Mombasa on Friday after a meeting with the National Assembly Trade, Industry and Cooperatives committee.
