the main suit will be rendered nugatory and irreparable harm will be occasioned to the public trust in Uganda’s judiciary. [4] The Respondent opposed this application through an affidavit in reply affirmed by Haji Kakande Yunus, the Secretary, Office of the President, who stated that upon the background of shocking gruesome crimes and deteriorating security in Uganda, the President of the Republic of Uganda proposed solution of a digital monitoring system and identified a Russian Company, M/s Joint Stock Company Global Security, as a potential service provider of a digital monitoring system. He stated that due diligence was conducted by a technical committee which concluded that the company had the capacity to undertake the project. A Memorandum of Understanding was executed with the company on 22nd March 2019 to carry out a feasibility study for an Intelligent Transport Monitoring System (ITMS) and an agreement was executed on 23rd July 2021 for the provision of a digital monitoring and tracking system. [5] The deponent stated that the law permits collection of data for national security, prevention, detection and investigation of an offence or breach of the law and the data collected shall be subject to data collection principles. He further stated that although the financial model has not yet been approved, it was not mandatory for a foreign company intending to do business in Uganda to register with URSB. He also stated that the agreement in issue is not governed by procurement laws and that the implementation is not a breach of the right to privacy as it will not be used to trail ordinary law abiding citizens but only serve to aid law enforcement in case of commission of a criminal offence and, as such, the derogation of the right to privacy is demonstrably justifiable under the law. 3
