The Commission on Administrative Justice (CAJ) has ordered the Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) to release records for the Kisii Branch Burial Benevolent Fund (BBF) within fourteen days. This directive follows a review application by a KUPPET member who was repeatedly denied access to these documents.

• The requested records include bank statements, documentation of bereavement payouts, and payment vouchers for allowances issued to Sub-County Delegates and BBF officials.
• KUPPET initially argued that as a private body, it was not subject to the Access to Information (ATI) Act, 2016, but the CAJ ruled that the Act applies to private entities performing functions of public interest.
• Non-compliance with the order will result in daily financial penalties of KSh 10,000 until the records are fully released.
