As an addition would it not be fair to oner of data and safer for the Controller to give an opportunity to defend themselves before the data is handed to authorities? Plus wouldn't be even more settling to have the right to be informed about inquiries and status of inquiries of one's data. Scenario: if a money transfer service is requested or made to hand over your transaction records, wouldn't be fair to have you notified of the demand and give you the chance to consent or protect via legal means?

Dear Listers,
Thank you for your contribution on yesterdays discussions on the offences, feel free to still comment on it under that mail stream posted by Barrack yesterday.
Today we discuss the Investigation Procedures of this bill. It outlines the powers and procedures to be followed by the authorities in carrying out computer and cyber related offences investigations.
This section touches on pertinent issues as outlined below:
20 — Scope of procedural provisions 21 — Search and seizure of stored computer data 22 — Power to search without a warrant in special circumstances 23 — Record of and access to seized data 24 — Production order 25 — Expedited preservation and partial disclosure of traffic data 26 — Real-time collection of traffic data 27 — Interception of content data 28 — Obstruction and misuse 29 — Appeal 30 — Confidentiality and limitation of liability
You can access the bill here: http://www.mygov.go.ke/?p=11234 or download the attached document.
*The Concerns*
1. To what extent are the service providers supposed to disclose their client data to the authorities?
2. Does any of the search or seizure powers given to authorities in this section violate any privacy rights enshrined in our constitution?
3. Has this part extensively covered all the investigation procedures required for all the offences stated in part II?
4. Does it match the international standards? If it does not, kindly point out areas that need to be incorporated into the bill.
N/B: Feel free to raise any concern or question not suggested here.
We are looking forward to your feedback on the above concerns and much more.
Thank you.
Barrack and Karis.
