Fneish In Support Of Limited Database Access for Security Services
Some ministers told Al-Mustaqbal newspaper on Saturday that Labor Minister Mohammad Fneish had objected, during the cabinet session on Thursday, to giving the security services all necessary databases within the telecommunications sector. He also requested limiting the available information, and restricting it to certain areas and times.
The ministers added that Fneish aimed to divert attention away from illegal wiretapping and noted that Telecommunications Minister Gebran Bassil had approved during Monday’s meeting to stop withholding information but then supported Fneish’s proposal after being pressured.
