The Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) has issued a stern warning to all government contractors across Kenya, reminding them to pay the Capacity Building Levy (CBL) by the June 30 deadline, which marks the end of the financial year.

• Failure to remit the CBL by the deadline will result in a relentless five per cent monthly penalty on the outstanding amount, accruing until full payment is made.
• The PPRA, an organization focused on strengthening public procurement transparency and efficiency, is enforcing this remittance.
• This directive affects ministries, state corporations, county governments, and other public institutions involved in procurement, who must finalize their financial obligations to avoid penalties.
