1 Upcoming Revisions
The telecommunications sector is on the move when looking at the
upcoming legislation in revision, namely revisions of the
Intelligence and Security Act, the Lawful Interception Act, the
Telecommunications Act, the Copyright Act and of the Data
Protection Act.
The first revision to enter into force is the revision of the

Lawful Interception Act. The other revisions are still in process,

has remained quite controversial and a referendum has been
requested. It has not been successful and the Intelligence and
Security Act passed referendum last September. Thereafter, the
Ordinances have been drafted, sent into consultation
