<p>Hi Brian - I am intrigued by your announcement praising the
"independence" of the CCK. I would like to put your assertions to
debate. I am not sure how you define "independence". To me it means
the organization is not controlled by any of its stakeholders in its
decision-making. So who are the stakeholders? Sometime back it was only
Government and some "private sector". We have recently
correctly included civil society. Maybe we need to add the technical
community as well as academia. I cannot recall the provisions of the enabling
instrument (Info and Comms Act) but the point I would like to make
is that all the reps of the "stakeholders" on the Board are
appointed BY THE GOVERNMENT. I am open to correction but I cannot recall any point
in time when the private sector has been approached to nominate private sector
reps to the CCK Board. Perhaps same for other stakeholders. If the resultant
Board ends up being described as "Independent" then perhaps my online
dictionary has been hit hard by a virus. Compare this with Government bodies
like the Public Procurement Oversight Authority. The enabling instrument,
Public Procurement and Disposals Act 2005 clearly sets forth how the
governing organs like the Advisory Board are set up. There is a bottom up
participatory process where stakeholders, including associations, are empowered
by the Act to nominate persons they know well from their industry spheres, and
the Minister for Finance makes his final selections only from the resultant
list. Somewhere in that Act the Computer Society of Kenya is listed
explicitly as a nominating agency. I have never seen such provisions in the
Board nomination processes for ICT related public entities including the CCK.
Maybe if you have better information you can let me know the process how the
Board of CCK gets to be populated then hopefully I can believe you that CCK is
"independent".<o:p></o:p></p>

I can assure you - after many years of working with regulators and operators

regulatory authority.<br>
<br>
Take a look at South Africa - capture - spells out what ICASA has been under

that CCK has.<br>

congratulate Mr Njoroge for the appointment as DG for CCK, however I still
find the criteria used weak if what was in last Saturday Nation
newspaper was part of the criteria. What is clear is that we are far from
expecting CCK to meet WTO expectation of an independent regulator. CCK is
strongly under what I term "political capture". The
issue of salary one earns as a prerequisite for short-listing for the post
makes it even worse in my view. What is the future for such criteria in the
eyes of all stakeholders particularly those in private sector, Foregn Direct
Investors etc? the question is, how can such officer be free from government
influence and special interest? Perhaps the criteria of appointment need to
be revised to give an independent outfit and sectoral professionalsm to
CCK DG position. </span><span style='font-family:"inherit","serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Subject: Re: [kictanet] Forum Agenda - Lets focus<br>
<br>
Harry,<br>
<br>
Indeed it would be a public forum - but to what extend has the message
gone outside Nairobi given that most listservers have subscribers in
NRB? Maybe there's need to have the traditional notice in the print
media. <br>
<br>
As for the Agenda proposed and copied below,<br>
1. Forum Objectives<br>
2. Association presentations<br>
3. General Discussion<br>
4. Way forward<br>
<br>
I would add - 3.5. How to Organise the different Associations for effective
engagement with Govt.<br>
<br>
walu.<br>
nb: meanwhile, unconfirmed reports from my moles indicate that a new DG for
CCK has been unveiled. Anybody with such a copy?<br>
