Thank you: Opportunity to offer recommendations for reforms in the ICT sector

Dear Dr. Grace:

This is great work and my apologies for not attending to this earlier was offline on medical grounds.

If possible, I’d be keen to contribute to the Cybersecurity policies discussions, especially implementation of the Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes Act, 2018.

Baraka,
Maria
