AIPPA was scrapped and replaced with the new Freedom of Information Act that became law on Wednesday after approval by President Emmerson Mnangagwa. The new law states that all information held by public institutions, including State-owned companies, can potentially be made public, with the exception of Cabinet discussions and certain information in victim-friendly courts. However, defence and national security information, plus certain financial matters like proposed taxes in the pipeline, secret industrial processes, diplomatic matters, and some personal details of individuals can be withheld. *More: The Herald* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
