'Maldives 2.0' digital bill submitted to parliament to modernise governance

The 'Maldives 2.0' Digital Transformation Bill has been submitted to parliament under President Dr Mohamed Muizzu's administration to modernize governance.

It proposes creating the 'Maldives Digital Service' agency under the Ministry of Homeland Security, Labour and Technology, absorbing existing ICT functions. A Commissioner for Digital Technology will be appointed by the President, and a Digital Governance Advisory Committee will draft technical standards. A seven-member Digital Transformation Council, including the President and relevant ministers, will set policies. The bill mandates a 'Maldives 2.0 Roadmap', a secure digital identity system, a unified citizen portal, and a data-sharing framework.
