@FlorenceKajuju: Commission oversights the right to fair administrative justice action & the right of access to information as provided for by Articles 47 and 35 of Constitution, respectively @MediaCouncilK @DavidOmwoyo @bodo_immink @giz_gmbh #KE @GermanyinKenya #AccessToInfoKE
@FlorenceKajuju: The Commission, being the oversight agency, has progressively put measures in place for effective and optimal realization of the right of access to information.
In the last Financial Year, 130,492 requests for info were received and processed by various Ministries, Government Departments and Agencies. This was a significant increase compared to the previous 2018/19 financial year where only 4,607 requests were processed @FlorenceKajuju
Equally, 90% of applications for review of decisions received by the Commission were successfully resolved @FlorenceKajuju
This being an electioneering period we expect all public bodies and private bodies that fall within the ambit of the Access to Information Act and Regulations to fully
comply with their obligations.
comply with their obligations.
Recent experiences across the continent illustrate the dangers that the lack of information during the electoral process poses to peace, security & stability. At best, the failure of stakeholders in the electoral process to proactively provide info breeds distrust.
