AMANI JEFWA MKARE VS KENYA PORTS AUTHORITY

I have read the applicant's two applications, both dated August 12, 2025. The first application seeks that the second application be admitted and heard, during this Honourable Court's August 2025 recess. According to section 9(6) of the Access to Information Act, cap. 7M, if the information sought from the respondent has not been provided within the stipulated time, the application for the information is deemed to have been rejected. The decision to reject the application should be subjected to review by the Commission under Section 14 (1) (a) of the Act. And under section 23(3) of the Act, a person may only approach this Honourable Court by way of an appeal once the review mechanisms have been exhausted. For these reasons, I am not satisfied that the application is urgent. It may not be viable in the first place. I direct that the application be served and for further directions on 22 October 2025. It is so ordered.
