Molefhi Appreciates Need For Data Protection Legislation :: Mmegi Online

Although the government continues to push for an enabling environment in ICT and business continuity management, the former Minister of Infrastructure, Science and Technology, Nonofo Molefhi appreciates there is still more that can be done in terms of legislation.

Giving a keynote address at a recent Continuity SA Botswana’s 10-year anniversary celebration, Molefhi said there is need for proper legislation on data protection and freedom of information. The Selebi Phikwe East legislator said this at a time where the Freedom of Information Bill has been brought before Parliament in the past, but never saw the light of day.

The minister told delegates at the anniversary that there is need for both the government and the private sector to embrace business continuity and risk management where proper legislation will come handy in the process.
