Debated in Parliament on 7 Jan 2025.
Mr Xie Yao Quan asked the Prime Minister and Minister for Finance (a) how many unmasked NRIC numbers have been exposed on the new ACRA's Bizfile before the search function is disabled; and (b) whether the Ministry will consider targeted communications to affected individuals to give them assurance on how they may protect themselves despite the exposure of their NRIC numbers.
This Parliamentary Question will be addressed through a Ministerial Statement by the Second Minister for Finance during the Parliament Sitting on 8 January 2025.
