The Department of Communications today (24 November 2011) announced that they have withdrawn the Electronic Communications (EC) Amendment Bill with immediate effect.

The DoC published the Electronic Communications (EC) Amendment Bill for public comment on 04 November 2011, but in a press statement the department said that further consultation was needed.

“The Department wishes to withdraw the EC Amendment Bill with immediate effect. This is done to allow further consultation within government on the contents of the Bill,” the DoC said in a press statement.

“Once this process is concluded, the Bill will again be published to solicit further input from the broader ICT industry and affected stakeholders.”
