Abstract
<p>The LAPSSET Corridor has taken several steps towards becoming an EDC &ndash; despite not yet being a functional transport corridor to the port. These include the formation of the LAPSSET Corridor Development Authority (LCDA), which has undertaken some regional economic development planning for the corridor. However, the activities of the LCDA in terms of coordinating and planning corridor investments has so far been limited to Kenya, and it does not appear that LCDA is legally recognised in South Sudan or Ethiopia. This means that it will be severely restricted in fulfilling the role of a CMI in terms of harmonization of systems and regulations and removal of barriers to trade. It is recommended that the LCDA is recognized formally in a trilateral agreement which gives it the mandate to manage all aspects of corridor development across the three member states. Once this is done, steps should be made to establish the corridor, similar to those recommended elsewhere.</p>
