<div>Dear Catherine, all,</div>
<div>I am sorry but up to now I do not know the functions of the ICCK. Is the new Act supposed to be read together with some previous Acts (98 Communications Act and the Amendment Act)? Where are these functions articulated and why are they not put explicitly in this Act? How can we be sure that that the functions allow for Independence when we are not clear about what the functions are? I don't think it is enough to just say that the ICCK will carry on the functions of the CCK when the agreement is that the CCK has not been independent. Functions, functions, functions. Someone please tell me the functions which we were supposed to be discussing yesterday.</div>

<p class="me48596me76141MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt">As we continue our debate on the draft 'Independent Communications Commission of Kenya Billl 2010' we recall how yesterday, we opened the discussion on the functions of the Commission where the key issue is that the ICCK will have to perform duties imposed on it by the former Commission. We did not have many contributions and I should not give my viewpoint too much but in this case indulge me. I believe the word ‘imposed’ must go. <br>

<p class="me48596me76141MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt">The other contribution was by Waudo mainly concerned with whether the ICCK will continue in its policy formulation function or whether it will be clear that it is meant to implement policy. He argued that since ICCK will take over whatever CCK has been doing then how does one deal with the aspect of being “independent of control by government” when in essence CCK votes at the ITU based on instructions from the Government of Kenya. If you want to continue anything on the Day 3 discussions kindly do so under the relevant header…contributions are still welcome.</span></p>
