Obnoxious for Shoppers to pay for packaging in Supermarkets as Cofek remain mute.

Why is Consumers Federation of Kenya (Cofek ) without response letting supermarkets taking advantage of Plastic Ban to extort innocent shoppers ? 

A spot check in large supermarket chains and retailers countrywide have shown they are charging for shopping bags to comply with the plastic bag ban that came into effect.

Chains such as Tuskys, Naivash ,  Nakumatt, Uchumi and Quickmart etc are no longer packaging goods on free biodegradable bags.

They are instead providing non-plastic bag carriers for packaging to shoppers at a fee while encouraging their customers to carry their own shopping bags.

The question, why are they passing the burden to consumers/shoppers when logically they should provide the packages as previously because they still had to spend to print branded plastic bags , others   huge than what they are selling and not even branded ?

Still some branded and rebranded goods like sugar, milk, bread, Crips/crunches are still packaged in unbiodegradable plastics. Which criteria is in place to ensure every company conforms to the ban when we still see these packaging in the shelves ?
