After a healthy and heated debate on the Media Council Bill 2010, next week we will move on to the following discussion: Topic: The Independent Communications Commission of Kenya Bill 2010 Venue: Here on the KICTANET list Participants: You Duration: Mon. 7th Feb - Thur. 17 Feb. 2010 (or technically on 18 Feb. 2010) I have decided to send out this notice early enough so you have time to download the Bill and read it. The Bill has four main Chapters: CHAPTER I : INTRODUCTORY PROVISIONS: Definitions etc. CHAPTER II: INDEPENDENT COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION OF KENYA: Establishment of the Independent Communications Commission of Kenya. CHAPTER III: COMMITTEES CHAPTER IV: TRANSITIONAL PROVISIONS: Transfer of Staff FIRST SCHEDULE: LAWS AMENDED OR REPEALED : MEMORANDUM OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
