[kictanet] Talk to Senate Final Report

[S.M. Muraya]

Good work *BUT* if it is the actual report to the Senate, the
recommendations to create CIO and CDO offices are not emphasized enough. These
officers will be PRIMARILY responsible to procure, create and support
(secure) data infrastructure and processing. By legislation, CIO approval
must be required in the procurement of the same. CIO budgets must be
considered (and never totally rejected) by County Assemblies.

We are told KES 6 Billion is budgeted for travel but what are the budgets
to increase access to information in 2017-2018?

>From the work done by the CIO and CDO in a State Corporation or County,
communication officers can publish more accurate and detailed information
(including visualizations) of expenditure, work flows, service delivery,
procurement, regulations, etc.
