Subject: Re: [kictanet] Day 8: SECTION 18: DISSOLUTION OF CCK; SECTION 19: TRANSFER OF STAFF

hey listers,
i think they should revise the meaning of 'effective date' in part one to read something like:

"effective date" means the date that this Act shall come into force,which date shall be determined by the Cabinet Secretary by notice in the Gazette'

so that it is clear that CCK becomes dissolved once the ICCK Act comes into force

 Dear Kictanet Members,


Day 7 was a relatively quiet day with only one substantive contribution from Mike Theuri on Section 14(2) where he suggested that there could be a number of approaches but should comply with existing law or also adopt an internal policy or both, he recommended that is should read:

 

The Commission shall establish and adhere to an equal employment opportunity policy and/or shall comply with equal employment opportunity laws that prohibit among other practices, discrimination in the consideration of employment on the basis of colour, race, national or geographic origin, physical or mental handicap, gender, sex, ethnicity, religion, marital status, age for the purposes of employment. The Commission shall make reasonable accommodations for qualified staff members or employment candidates who may have a physical or mental handicap that would be a hindrance to job performance in the absence of these accommodations to allow them to carry out their respective employment duties.

 

The other contributions were more of ‘asides’. Today we move to Day 8 on:

 

SECTION 18: DISSOLUTION OF CCK

SECTION 19: TRANSFER OF STAFF

SECTION 20: TRANSFER OF RIGHTS, LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS


SECTION 18:

18 (1) The CCK hereby dissolved with effect from the effective date.

18(2)(a) CCK Board to stay in Office until before first meeting of the Commission.


Question: Is this straightforward or are there any comments?


SECTION 19:

- All staff will be transferred to the Commission but their remuneration will not be significantly different if I understand it correctly.


SECTION 20:  TRANSFER OF LIABILITIES ETC.

- Essentially everything that CCK owns will be transferred to ICCK…makes sense huh?

 

 We only have two more days for this discussion...kindly send in any opinions you may have.


Best Wishes,


Nyaki
