Subject: Privacy issues on govmu.org

Dear Mrs Madhub,

I am doing some research about privacy in Mauritius. According to https://hacklog.mu/will-the-dpo-investigate-privacy-issues-on-govmu-org/
there has been a complaint "regarding unexplained collection of personal information on the Government web portal".

I would be grateful if you could confirm whether there has been any complaint regarding "govmu.org" web sites. I could not find any information about complaints relating to government agencies. I would be grateful if I could be provided with the statistics about the number of complaints involving government agencies and the outcome of the cases for the years 2009 to 2015.

Regards,
S. Moonesamy
