The approval of this policy comes at a time when the government moves towards the modelling and approval of supporting ICT legislation like the Computer Crime and Cybercrime Bill as well as the e-transactions Bill.
These pieces of legislation are still in the development stages and the progress in their implementation hinged upon the adoption of an updated ICT Policy that replaces the 2005 version which was in use.
