This infrastructure includes roads, Power lines, Pipelines, ICT infrastructure and water reticulation systems among others.Currently, the deployment, maintenance and protection of Critical Infrastructure is done in an independent and uncoordinated manner leading to disruption of essential services and losses due to damage. There is need therefore to consider having a whole inclusive approach in the planning, designing implementation and protection of critical infrastructure.It is on this basis that the Cabinet Secretaries of the Ministries of Transport and Infrastructure, Energy and Petroleum and that of Information, Communications and Technology have formed a Taskforce to draft a policy and legislative framework for the protection of critical infrastructure in the Country.In this regard, a task force on formulation of a Critical Infrastructure Protection Bill was formed on 27th March 2015 (Kenya Gazette (No. 1987 of 2015).ContactLooking forward to your presence to cover this event.Kindly RSVP to Phyllis Nyambura.
