Summary

The Sierra Leone Produce Marketing Act (Repeal) Act, 2013 repealed the Sierra Leone Produce Marketing Act, which had established the Produce Marketing Board that formerly controlled the marketing and export of agricultural produce (such as cash crops) in Sierra Leone.

A repealing Act of this kind removes the earlier law from the statute book, reflecting a policy shift away from a state marketing-board monopoly towards a liberalised, market-based approach to the marketing of produce. It may make consequential and transitional provision arising from the repeal.

Main provisions

  • Repeals the Sierra Leone Produce Marketing Act.
