If they want something they come to your office and they kindly ask for it.
You then can say NO or YES.

If you refuse and there is a legitimate reason why Government needs it (e.g. you are a person of concern) then they ALSO need to go to the courts and get the rights to compel you to give it to government.

But just walking into homes and offices and taking what they want is not how civilized societies operate.
You are I believe thinking about "Atilla The Hun" rule.

Kiggs,

So what should the govt do incase it needs to obtain information? The
law can always be exploited but that's why I am told we have courts
through which justice can be sought...

Sam,
If you have nothing to hide
Why do you have curtains on your windows?

You should be able to say you are doing nothing illegal so people can come
to your place at any time of the day or night and look in?

Its a privacy issue. I have material that only I need to see (and no its
not porn).

unless one has something to 'hide', I believe the drafters had honest

You may want to get some views in on the matter. Edward Baliddawa, who
is
known to many of us, is understood to be the chairman of the committee
that
will discuss this Bill. Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
You will no doubt note Section 21, which taken together with Sec. 19 and Schedule 2 offers more than a little opportunity for legalised abuse.
Yes,
no African government needs a law like this to abuse the rights of
citizens,
but I'm sure there are lessons in history that would counsel against
letting
this pass as it is...
