LONDON :Kenya's anti-doping agency ADAK will move onto WADA's watch list in an easing of the non-compliant status announced last month, the world's body's director general Olivier Niggli said on Thursday.

ADAK was warned in September of serious consequences unless the East African nation addressed critical requirements following an audit carried out in May last year.

"By going onto the watch list from non-compliance means that we're going to make sure that everything gets implemented and we're going to see what they do for about six months now watching closely," Niggli told Reuters at a World Anti-Doping Agency media briefing.

"Make sure that the promises they made, the investment they promised, is coming to place," he added.
