Joint Press Release calling on the Government to Conduct Thorough Public Consultation Prior to Right to Information (RTI) Act Amendment
A joint press release by civil society organizations calls on the Maldives Attorney General and the Office for Civil Rights to conduct thorough public consultations, including with marginalized groups, before amending the Right to Information (RTI) Act, which marks 10 years since ratification in 2024. The organizations also call for a review of the current RTI regime and for no existing rights under the Act to be restricted.
