Dear Stakeholders,

Organizations generally put in place appropriate policies for the 
detection and prevention of frauds, corruptions, misappropriations, 
and other inappropriate conduct. You can find more information about 
an AFRINIC policy and its implementation at 
<https://www.afrinic.net/ast/pdf/20201222-afrinic-fraud-corruption-policy.pdf>.

The AFRINIC Members mailing list 
<https://lists.afrinic.net/mailman/listinfo.cgi/members-discuss> is 
open to all AFRINIC Resource Members.  I suggest that Resource 
Members use it if they are interested in discussing AFRINIC business 
matters with other Resource Members.

There was a complaint related to a request for access to "Whois 
data".  It is more difficult to reach agreement when there isn't a 
common understanding of the regulatory constraints.  Some of the 
data, which is categorized as "personal data" [1], is regulated 
through data protection laws.  There is, for example, the Data 
Protection Act 2017 for Mauritius, which is applicable.

Regards,
S. Moonesamy
