| Rebate of certain duties on damaged goods. |
148. (1) Where goods imported into Kenya are damaged before the goods are delivered out of customs control, then, subject to the provisions of this section, a rebate of the duty payable in respect of the goods may be allowed in such amount as, in the opinion of the Commissioner, is in proportion to the damage sustained by the goods.
(2) No rebate of duty shall be allowed under this section in respect of goods (not being goods to which section 154 applies) except where the proper officer is satisfied that the carrier or insurer of the goods has made an allowance to the owner in respect of the damage; and in no case shall the rebate exceed such proportion of the duty as the amount of the allowance so made bears to the value, calculated in accordance with section 127, of the undamaged goods. |
