Several issues were framed one being whether the existing laws had failed to curb the problem of importation of substandard and counterfeit goods and services to the country despite the expectation of the society and many Tanzanians that proper enforcement of the law will reduce the problem among others. The main argument advanced in the study is that the problem is caused by the implementation of the law. A critical study of the international instruments and municipal laws on trademarks, counterfeit goods and services was made. A study of case laws on trademarks, counterfeit trademarks, goods and services, both in Tanzania and in other jurisdictions was also made.
