The Cabinet approved draft legislation on Wednesday regulatin=
g the tapping of telephones and intercepting of e-mails. Outstanding matter=
s had been settled with cellphone companies, and the Bill would be submitte=
d to Parliament for processing, government spokesperson Joel Netshitenzhe t=
old reporters in Pretoria.
"There was an outstanding issue about the obligation of cellpho=
ne companies in terms of registration of people."
The Regulation of Interception of Communications and Provision =
of Communication-related Information Amendment Bill seeks to regulate the l=
awful interception of certain communications, and defines the obligations o=
f cellphone and SIM-card sellers.
"Negotiations with the cellphone industry have been completed. =
The companies have agreed that this can be done, and the relevant infrastru=
cture will be put in place," Netshitenzhe said.
"It will take them about a year to put this in operation."
He could not say if the cost for the infrastructure would be sh=
ared.
"The infrastructure will belong to the cellphone companies so t=
he assumption is that they will make a major contribution."
Last year, the justice department said the new law would allow =
phones to be tapped and e-mails to be intercepted as a tool in the fight ag=
ainst crime.
Such interception could only be done after authorisation by a j=
udge designated especially to perform that function.
The law would place a duty on telecommunication service provide=
rs to keep information on their clients should this be required for investi=
gating serious crimes. It would become a criminal offence not to report los=
t, stolen or destroyed cellphones and SIM cards to the police.
Law-abiding citizens had no reason to fear that their right to =
privacy would be compromised in any way, the department said at the time. -=
