Official Secrets Act

ai generated text

An Official Secrets Act (OSA) is a law that protects state secrets and official information related to national security. The law exists in over 40 countries, mostly former British colonies, and has a long history dating back to the 16th Century, when Queen Elizabeth I declared that written accounts of Francis Drake's voyages were to be kept secret. In many countries, the OSA has been amended and modified over time, with some countries, such as Canada, replacing the OSA with new laws, while others, such as Singapore, continue to use the OSA to prohibit the disclosure of official documents and information.learn more on wikipedia
