KICTANet provided a five week opportunity for all
stakeholders including
those on this list to send comments/proposals. Some
civil society groups and
others send in their proposals and our work was to
collate the comments we
received.

Wonderful job done
Dear ALL,
As we shower Alice with congratulatory messages, I
have an issue under the
environment section that states;
___________
Limits should be placed on importing refurbished
computers. Appropriate
recycling facilities should be established for
disposing of used computers
which may contain toxic substances such as
mercury.
___________
I think we should be able to define what we mean
by refurbished instead of
a
blanked limit. Refurbs have been used for very
noble tasks and good
examples
can be seen in the work of Computer for Schools
Kenya, ALIN through Baobab
Communications among others. I hope this was not
'sneaked' for individuals
interest. The national interests should come first
BUT I agree standards
for
refurbs should be set. I believe most refurbs are
better than some of the
clones in the market. I hope this can be
corrected.
Best regards
James Nguo
