[kictanet] Forthcoming Discussions on the Independent Communications Commission of Kenya Bill 2010 14-25 Feb.

[Catherine Adeya]

Dear Listers,
After a healthy and heated debate on the Media Council Bill 2010, next week (on 
Valentine's day to be exact) we  will move on to the following discussion:
Topic: The Independent Communications Commission of Kenya Bill 2010
Venue: Here on the KICTANET list
Participants: You
Duration: Mon.14 th Feb - Fri. 25 Feb. 2010 
I have decided to send out this notice early enough so you have time to download 
the Bill and read it. The Bill has four main Chapters:
 CHAPTER I : INTRODUCTORY PROVISIONS: Definitions etc.
 CHAPTER II: INDEPENDENT COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION OF KENYA: Establishment of 
the Independent Communications Commission of Kenya.
CHAPTER III: COMMITTEES
CHAPTER IV:  TRANSITIONAL PROVISIONS: Transfer of Staff
FIRST SCHEDULE: LAWS AMENDED OR REPEALED
    : MEMORANDUM OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

However, we will focus our discussions mainly on Chapter II, III and IV for 
obvious reasons.
You can access 'The Independent Communications Commission of Kenya (ICCK) Bill' 
at the Ministry of Information and Communications 
website:http://www.information.go.ke/
 To be more exact you can find it 
at: http://www.information.go.ke/index2.php?option=com_docman&task=doc_view&gid=19&Itemid=37

The ten day discussions will focus on critical and gnawing issues. We will 
summarize the discussions as we go along.
