Kenyan lawmakers have supported proposed changes to anti-doping legislation in the hope WADA will accept the law this time.
The lawmakers were brought off vacation for a special sitting of parliament on Thursday. The legislation must also pass through the senate and be signed into law by the president.
Kenya was forced to make the changes after the World Anti-Doping Agency rejected an initial law, and declared the East African nation non-compliant. That meant the suspension of Kenya's entire drug-testing program three months before the Rio Olympic Games.
A Kenyan delegation flew to Canada last week to meet WADA officials.
Kenyan sports minister Hassan Wario said WADA had problems with a number of areas of the original legislation, including a clause calling for jail terms for athletes guilty of doping.
