Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK)

Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK)

The Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK) is the regulatory authority for the communications sector in Kenya.

Established in 1999 by the Kenya Communications Act (KCA) No. 2 of 1998, CCK’s initial mandate was regulation of the telecommunications and postal/courier sub-sectors, and the management of the country’s radiofrequency spectrum.

In recognition of the rapid changes and developments in technology which have blurred the traditional distinctions between telecommunications, Information Technology (IT) and broadcasting, the Government in January 2009 enacted the Kenya Communications (Amendment) Act 2009.  This statute enhanced the regulatory scope and jurisdiction of CCK, and effectively transformed it to a converged regulator.

CCK is now responsible for facilitating the development of the information and communications sectors (including broadcasting, multimedia, telecommunications and postal services) and electronic commerce.
