The High Court has ordered the government to disclose details of the US-linked Ebola quarantine facility after the State failed to file responses or appear in court.
The court extended conservatory orders stopping the establishment of any Ebola quarantine, isolation or treatment facility in Kenya and barred the admission of individuals exposed to Ebola, pending the hearing of the case filed by Katiba Institute.
Further, the court directed the Health Cabinet Secretary to provide the petitioner and the public with the agreement details, health and biosafety assessments, regulatory approvals and operational protocols.
The CS ordered to make the disclosures within seven days.
The court also set the matter for mention on June 23, to confirm compliance and arrange a hearing.
