Expanding intelligence and crime prevention powers
The Constitution will be amended so that provisions can be laid down by act to grant authorities the right to restrict the sanctity of the home and the secrecy of confidential communications in order to combat serious crime and security threats. This will enable intelligence and surveillance to target homes and confidential messages even before a concrete crime has occurred or an individualised suspicion of a crime exists.
