I believe the lexpress.mu article claimes that it's just a proposal and
will be voted on in two weeks.  I think it was originally published
11 July so the decision should be made shortly (if it hasn't yet in the
last few days).

I've asked a contact in Mauritius to provide an authoritative reference
for the change (if they can), otherwise I suspect more information
should be available soon.
