The Community Development Agreement Committee (CDAC) was established during the mid-2010s to oversee a portion equivalent to at least 1% of Base Titanium’s total sales, to be allocated for the benefit of communities impacted by mining operations.
In Kilifi, there are three CDACs including Msambweni, Lungalunga, and Likoni
As outlined in the Mining Act of 2016, the CDAC account is required to include representatives from the State, Community, and Non-State entities.
The responsibilities were allocated among national and county government administration, political leadership, women, youth, persons with disabilities, and holders of mining licenses.
The members are responsible for guaranteeing that Base Titanium Limited’s mining operations generate the highest possible socio-economic benefits that are inclusive and sustainable.
Mboko is serving her second term in Parliament.
