    "content": "wish to note that this is going to be his second term in the Board of the Competition Authority, having served in the first board. He has a world of experience in telecommunication and regulatory affairs, having worked in so many other organisations including Head of Regulatory Affairs in Telkom Kenya Centre, Management for Commonwealth Telecommunication Organisation in 2008 and Acting Company Secretary and Board member of the Kenya Network Information Centre between 2004 and 2005. We did not receive any memoranda either negative or positive on this nominee. He is also working in his firm called Kiptinness & Odhiambo Associates in addition to offering his services as a lecturer at the University of Nairobi. The Committee noted that the nominee exhibited impressive knowledge of the topical issues touching on competition and market practices. The Committee further noted that the nominee had served in the inaugural Competition Authority whose term ended in 2015. With his nomination for appointment, it will ensure that there is continuity, institutional memory and avoid disruption of operations of the Authority in case where members of the Authority were to exit."
