SUBJECT: TRAFFICKING IN PERSONS: KENYA ESTABLISHES NATIONAL STEERING 
COMMITTEE 
 
SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED 
 
1. (SBU) Summary: The Government of Kenya (GOK) is increasing its 
efforts to combat trafficking in persons (TIP) following a pivotal 
June 25 meeting of the National Steering Committee to Combat Human 
Trafficking.  The Committee selected a task force of GOK agencies, 
NGOs and UN agencies to draft a National Plan of Action (NPA), and a 
smaller group to serve as the Secretariat for the task force.  The 
initiative is partly the result of an International Organization for 
Migration (IOM) project, and IOM will take the lead in training and 
supporting the Committee and Task Force in preparing both the NPA 
and a National Strategy to fight TIP.  The meeting was a welcome 
first step in what will likely be a long, slow process towards 
addressing TIP more effectively in Kenya.  End Summary. 
 
TIP Problem Demands National Plan of Action 
------------------------------------------- 
 
2. (SBU) On July 25, Ministry of Home Affairs (MOHA) Permanent 
Secretary (PS) Nancy Kirui chaired the second meeting of the GOK's 
 
SIPDIS 
National Steering Committee to Combat Human Trafficking attended by 
13 GOK agencies, four UN agencies, 10 NGOs, and U.S. Embassy reps. 
(The much smaller May 22 meeting appears to have been a prelude that 
planned for the July 25 meeting.)  The PS stated that TIP was a 
serious problem in Kenya, especially impacting children, who are 
used as domestics and commercial sex workers.  The Attorney 
General's office, she said, is working on a bill to criminalize TIP. 
 Without mentioning the State Department's TIP report, the PS noted 
that Kenya was a source, transit and destination country, with a 
tier two international ranking.  She acknowledged the need to build 
awareness, and praised a recent TV program that documented the 
regional child trafficking problem.  She called on her Ministry's 
Children's Services Department and the assembled agencies and 
organizations to prepare a National Plan of Action (NPA) to address 
this "hidden crime."  She also called for [donor] support for the 
initiative. 
 
3. (SBU) Embassy reps provided copies of the 2007 TIP report and 
offered to work within both the Committee and the Donors Working 
Group on TIP to support the initiative. 
 
Task Force Appointed to Draft Action Plan 
----------------------------------------- 
 
4. (SBU) The Committee agreed to meet every two months, and to 
appoint a smaller Task Force to draft the NPA, composed of the 
following agencies: 
 
-- GOK: Office of the Vice-President, MoHA Children's Services, 
Immigration, Police, Attorney General's Office, and Ministry of 
Labour. 
-- UN: IOM, UNICEF. 
-- NGOs: FIDA, CRADLE, SOLWODI, LSK, and ANPPCAN regional. 
 
5. (SBU) The Task Force agreed to an IOM-sponsored training session 
on TIP and NPAs, to draft the terms of reference for the Task Force, 
and to hold a series of drafting meetings to prepare a plan for 
submission to the Committee.  They also agreed that IOM, Children's 
Services, and the CRADLE would serve as a Secretariat to arrange 
logistics for the meetings and develop curriculum for the training. 
 
 
Increased GOK Commitment 
------------------------ 
 
6. (U) The GOK's increased commitment to fighting TIP was also 
demonstrated by the recent high-profile activities of Vice President 
Awori, who heads the Ministry of Home Affairs.  Besides leading the 
multi-city tour of the caravan for increased child protection, he 
officiated at the African Day of the Child ceremonies, whose theme 
was "Combating Child Trafficking." 
 
IOM is Lead Donor 
----------------- 
 
7. (SBU) Working with other donors, the IOM has taken the lead in 
convincing the GOK to begin the process of addressing TIP, and in 
providing resources.  The establishment of the Committee and the 
proposed NPA are part of an IOM project to help Kenya address its 
TIP problem.  The IOM officer was pleased with the results of the 
meeting, and believes the GOK is becoming more committed to 
addressing the issue. 
 
Comment 
------- 
 
NAIROBI 00003118  002 OF 002 
 
 
 
8. (SBU) The presence of the PS, her deputy and senior staff and all 
the relevant GOK agencies, the acknowledgment and detailed 
discussion of the extent and seriousness of TIP in Kenya, and the 
agreement to proceed with drafting the NPA are all welcome evidence 
the GOK has really started the process of developing a national 
anti-TIP strategy. However, the process is likely to be long and 
slow.  The inclusion of only one embassy on the Committee is 
acknowledgment of the U.S. Embassy's lead role on TIP within the 
donor community.
