AfriForum addresses 5G policy

AfriForum yesterday submitted commentary to the Department of Communication and Digital technology against the Draft Policy and Policy Direction on Rapid Deployment of Electronic Communication Networks and Facilities (the so-called 5G policy).

 According to AfriForum, this draft policy contains various concerning regulations that will among others violate property rights and pose specific safety risks to landowners. In its commentary, AfriForum points out that it is in no way against technological advancement, but that this advancement must happen in a responsible and constitutional manner without violating people’s fundamental rights.
