Data Protection Act (No. 3 of 2024) — Notice of Commencement
Complete Government Notice 40 on physical page 3 of Malawi Gazette Supplement No. 16A of 31 May 2024, with the original enacting formula, ministerial name/signature, file number and Government Printer imprint. Acting under section 1 of the Data Protection Act No. 3 of 2024, the Minister appoints 3 June 2024 as the date on which that Act comes into operation. That is the parent Act commencement, not an inferred separate commencement date for this notice. Government Notice 39 in the same issue concerns business-licensing fees and is excluded from this expression; the contrary reference number in the NIH directory is not adopted. The original notice is preserved by the Gazette archive; it is not described as hosted by the issuing ministry. This supports the research-data protection chain referenced in KUREC transfer templates, rather than supplying a device-modification approval period. The complete enacted parent Act expression is now separately retained; later regulations/amendments and current applicability remain under review; excluded from default current-law discovery.
