Alice, Thank you for agreeing to vitual discussions of these important Bills. We shall use the outcomes to revise the Bills before presenting them to stakeholders at some agreed place. Regards Ndemo.
Dear all,
Very best wishes for 2011.
Following an invitation by P.S Dr. Ndemo for stakeholder input/comments and discussions on the two proposed draft bills, I am pleased to announce that the Kenya ICT Action Network (KICTANet), University of Nairobi (UoN), and the International Development and Research Center (IDRC) will launch discussions starting Monday January 24th, 2011.
"Media Council Bill 2010" discussions/input will begin on Monday 24 for 10 days ending February 4th. Thereafter discussions/input on the "Independent Communications Commission of Kenya draft bill" from February 14th to 25th.
As with previous policy related discussions the processes will be facilitated. Grace Githaiga will facilitate discussions on the Media council bill, Dr. Catherine Adeya on the Independent Communications Commission of Kenya, Kerubo Kemunto will assist with moderation and reporting and Washington Odhiambo continues to manage technical aspects of the list/s.
Each draft bill discussion will take ten days on the KICTANet mailing list and blog. All comments,suggestions, edits and opinions relevant to the draft bills will be collated and will form part of the first draft report that will be validated at a face to face workshop in March 2011 (dates to be announced later).
The final report/s will be submitted to the Ministry of Information and Communication as well as the Parliamentary Select committee on Energy Information and Communication.
We look forward to very vibrant discussions. Attached the two draft bills. Can also be accessed on the ministry website: http://www.information.go.ke/
very best
Alice
