Wetangula is referring to is registration of persons. I am happy to note that the Information Communication Technology (ICT) Committee, where I sat as the Vice Chairperson in the last Senate, developed the Data Protection Bill which went to the National Assembly and was put on the shelves.

Recently, the founder of Facebook had lots of problems about data infiltration. Just access to that information of Facebook raised an uproar. Now, imagine a country like this with terrorists, fraudsters and you are required to give your DNA profile to agencies without a safety and legal protection.

A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
