<p><span lang="EN-US">Dear Colleagues, <br>
<br>
This is an invitation to a discussion on intermediary liability
in Kenya
starting tomorrow Tuesday 2nd October 2012, which will be
followed by a breakfast meeting on 10th October at jacaranda
hotel. </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">See attached the initial
findings of the
study on Intermediary Liability in Kenya. We welcome comments.
Please note that this initial report
is a forthcoming publication, and it should not be cited
publicly until November,
when the final report will be made available.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">The study notes that there
is a lack of a
clear framework for liability of intermediaries and a lot of
uncertainty in
understanding our evolving post-constitution legislative
environment particularly
in "regards to what offenses may happen on communications
networks and
whether intermediaries would be liable or not, this may have
contributed to
caution and self-regulation. <br>
<br>
In addition, there seems to be no legislated take down
procedures other than
responding in court to whichever law was cited as broken. Do
we
need a </span><span lang="EN-US">"clear
framework for liability of
intermediaries, and safe harbor legislation? What are the
strengths and weaknesses of the current situation</span><span lang="EN-US">?<br>
<br>
We would like to encourage policy discussions on these issues
with the aim of
providing concrete recommendations and way forward.<br>
<br>
Grace Githaiga and Victor Kapiyo will take it from here<br>
<br>
Best<br>
<br>
Alice<br>
