Dear Listers, Please allow to THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH for your great contributions during the three day "talk to senate" forum. I must admit the Senate ICT Committee's expectation to get good ideas was surpassed, what with the honest discussions and brilliant ideas you contributed. I did pick from the discussions that feedback from parliament/policymakers hasn't been optimal in the past so please allow me to provide some preliminary feedback. Senate ICT Committee has held a few meetings outside of our normal business to deal with some of the latest happenings and anchored on this, we did discuss some of what we did with you to generate ideas for our committee business. This was very well received by all committee members. We have already submitted some of your broad ideas to our legal team for further processing and advice as to the best next legislative and other actions. Additionally, the Committee plans to host representatives of this team to present the full report of ideas generated during the three day engagement. I believe the communication to that effect has already reached you. To strengthen our committee's engagement with its stakeholders, I have enlisted the support of my colleague and fellow Senate ICT committee member Senator Moses Kajwang as additional stakeholder link/focal person for this and other stakeholder groups. List Admin, thanks for adding Senator Kajwang. This shows how seriously we take our stakeholder engagement and the great value we attach to public participation - BTW Thanks very much for the public participation guidelines ideas. Once again, thank you very much. We look forward to meeting you and translating your great ideas and inputs into legislative and other strategic initiatives. With kind regards, Sen.
