[kictanet] On Access to ICCK Minutes - Universal Access Fund

[warigia bowman]

what exactly is the percentage of financing going to the Fund? I know in
rwanda, and uganda is two percent

are we there yet?

is there transparency?

Have any of the funds been expended? If they have been expended, on what?
