  • National Security and the Right to Information: the Case of Namibia
    - NATIONAL SECURITY AND THE RIGHT TO INFORMATION: THE CASE OF NAMIBIA Andre du Pisani (FIRST DRAFT) Executive Summary This cursory paper explores the topography of the national security policy landscape from a chronological perspective. The paper starts with a brief historical setting that locates the subsequent evolution and development of security policy frames, starting with Defence, followed by State Security (Intelligence), Foreign Policy, Financial Intelligence, Terrorism and the newly-developed National Security Policy Framework (NSPF). The paper posits a link between national security and the connected processes of state- and nation-building and emphasizes both the symbolic and institutional charge of national security. In respect of access to information, the paper draws the media landscape, engages with some of the current policy directions and concludes that a number of key frameworks are in place that could conceivably culminate in a freedom of information law. Based on the information at the disposal of the author, the paper concludes that on balance, more weight is accorded to the imperatives of national security than to the right to and access to information. Namibians however, are not starved of information relevant to national security and there are both executive and legislative oversight mechanisms in place, even if there is room for improvement. Civil society is engaging more with the primacy of having a freedom of information framework in place and there are signs that Government is not entirely unwilling to entertain such a demand. The recently completed National Security Policy Framework (NSPF), if robustly implemented holds much promise for enhancing access to information and for improving inter-agency cooperation within the Namibian security system.
