From the discussions there were more recommendation and in particular the introduction and maintenance of fair play and competition, harmonisation of the current market structure that does not promote competition. There were further recommendation on content development and government participation in provision of online services through e-government and other initiatives, there was recommendation on the regulator directly supporting the Kenya Internet Exchange Point (KIXP).
In fact additional recommendations on a vertically integrated license to incorporate facilities as well as service provision and access to the end users directly. This was suggested as the Data Carrier Network Operator (DCNO) license Basically the report will be available on the CCK website from Monday for comments and I propose Walu and co you set up a specific list discussion to ensure the recommendations and views provided will be coordinated and all encompassing. -- Joseph Mucheru Executive Director mucheru@wananchi.com
