Furthermore, the Bill introduces severe penalties of up to KSh 5,000,000 in fines and imprisonment for those practicing without registration, potentially criminalizing Landscape Architects for doing work within their legitimate professional domain.
We are calling for clear statutory boundaries and stakeholder consultation to ensure the legislation promotes collaboration rather than overlap. #LAAK #ArchitectsBill2026 #BuiltEnvironment
