Commissioners appointed by the President on the recommendation of the Public Service Commission (PSC). Cabinet secretary (not the president) should make appointments on recommendation of PSC. This would be in line with decentralization of power that has been at the core of the recently promulgated constitution. We need to consider something about need for diverse backgrounds of commissioners; I don't know how to articulate that but there needs to be emphasis on technical business leadership, regulatory policy, etc. On appointment term of service, is there a way to incorporate "overlaps" to ensure continuity; this may mean staggering appointments; for instance we can have a condition that not more than 50% of commissioner terms can end at the same time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Matunda Nyanchama, PhD, CISSP; mnyanchama@aganoconsulting.com Agano Consulting Inc.; www.aganoconsulting.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Be prepared to face ICT Security failures & know how to respond when they happen!
