<DIV>please contribute if you have anything to say about the FOI bill coz even after the one week meetings and imputs to the ICT policy document, the media is opposed to sections of the draft bill that relate to cross ownership,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>we have all the time to discuss these things online before the meeting, i think thats one thing ICTs give us, to move from the more traditional insistence of face to face meetings,</DIV>
<DIV>i believe the forum will be an opportunity to present to the PS what the media stakeholders will have discussed in form of a report, </DIV>
<DIV>those present will have an opportunity to discuss from the floor and those who will not make it can make their presentations online....</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>During the preparations/drafting of the ICT policy, there were several stakeholders workshops, with a major <U>one week</U> workshop held in Mombasa. After this major workshop a team later went to Mombasa again to draft and fine tune the ICT policy document, and incorporating suggestions,amendments and inputs from stakeholders. This was one of the most inclusive exercise, that I can recall.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>even with the stakeholders workshop, there is need for those online to identify issues for discussion, the one day forum may not give media stakehlders a chance to read the document that day, it will be assumed they have read.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>i think for the few media practioners online, they can identify such issues on behalf of others, thats what mainly happens in other discussions like the just concluded discussion on OFC, </DIV>
<DIV>i hope we can discuss it before that day,</DIV>
