Great suggestions Victor, your proposals are timely, should you have access to the new rules, kindly share them on list. I agree with your proposals for partnership with the Judiciary and the LSK. Best Regards On Wed, Jun 20, 2012 at 11:19 AM, Victor Kapiyo <vkapiyo@gmail.com> wrote:
Barrack,
The Constitution has opened up new avenues for addressing consumer protection and public interest litigation. I am aware the CJ is currently finalising rules that will make it easier for people to lodge petitions in the public interest.
In addition, a review of the Kenya Communication Act should suffice to identify some of the gaps and provide mechanisms to address them.
More importantly, i think it would be helpful to work in partnership with the Judiciary and the LSK to explore the possibility of training or sensitizing judicial officers and lawyers on these critical issues. Such initiatives will ultimately help build our local body of jurisprudence on ICT and IP related matters.

Agreed Ali, we have a couple of Consumer watchdogs around it would be great to get their opinion on the same.

Probably a good idea to get comments from the consumer watchdog?

Interesting observations Victor, how can we bring the courts on board or better still how can we safeguard the interests of those who cannot challenge the Telcos in court?
