That aspect of public participation is in order. If the team has mapped out stakeholders and will invite them, then halleluyah, we will come. The other aspect which possibly could emerge from the meeting,  may be if they are starting afresh or building on what stakeholders already put in place. 

William.

William,
 
The invitations for industry, consumer and government stakeholders are on the way.  I am sure you also appreciate the constitutional requirement for public participation and the need to solicit comments on the draft regulatory instruments from as many sections of society as possible.  The public notice was meant to serve this purpose.

Dear Wambua et al, 
There appears to be too many parallel efforts at dealing with the bills or sections related to the media and communications industry. So much effort was already made in reviewing the two Bills. I am not too sure the current initiatives are are meant to build
 onto the efforts already made before. And don't the people involved in the new initiative have an idea about who the stakeholders are? I have not seen any targeted invitation, beyond the said newspaper advert. 

My opinion.

Oloo Janak.

The draft bill is available on the CCK website at http://www.cck.go.ke/regulations/ict_regulatory_framework.html . The policy justification for the proposed amendments to the Kenya Information and Communications Act, 1998, is also available on the same webpage.
 
Best regards,
 
Wambua
