Summary

Developed as a part of the ITU-EC-ACP Project “Enhancing Competitiveness in the Caribbean through the Harmonization of ICT Policies, Legislation and Regulatory Procedures” (HIPCAR Project) with funding from European Union
Objective: to assist CARIFORUM countries to harmonize their information and communication technology (ICT) policies, legislation and regulatory procedures so as to create an enabling environment for ICT development and connectivity, thus facilitating market integration, fostering investment in improved ICT capabilities and services, and enhancing the protection of ICT consumers’ interests across the region
Six (6) inter-related model legislative frameworks developed over the course of the Project:
- Access to Public Information (Freedom of Information)
- Privacy and Data Protection
- Electronic Commerce (Transactions)
- Electronic Commerce (Evidence)
- Cybercrime:
  - defines offences, investigation instruments and the criminal liability of key actors
- Interception of Electronic Communications:
  - establishes an appropriate framework that prohibits the illegal interception of communication;
  - defines a narrow window that enables law enforcement to lawfully intercept of communication if certain clearly defined conditions are fulfilled
