Dennis Tan on Digital Infrastructure Bill
For the first time, Singapore will have a law specifically addressing how data centres use electricity and water, said MP Dennis Tan. He raised several questions about the Digital Infrastructure Bill in parliament on Tuesday (Oct 6), aimed at making sure it works as intended. The areas included exemptions for government agencies and public authorities, ensuring that operators know the standards they will be held to and when, and publication of consumption data so that parliament and the public can see the results.
