IFJ calls for inclusive discussion of draft Broadcasting law www.en.montsame.mn
Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ In a recent statement, the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) welcomed the decision by the Mongolian Government to place the draft Broadcasting Law before Parliament.
The IFJ also joined its affiliate, the Confederation of Mongolian Journalists (CMJ), in calling on the Mongolian Government to ensure thorough consultation with stakeholders on the law and potential implementation.
In early March, the draft Broadcasting Law was put forward to the Mongolian Parliament after several years of debate and numerous versions. “Mongolia’s media has flourished in recent years, boosting 400 media outlets for a population of just three million. Although the law is welcomed to help regulate the media, concerns have been raised about its impacts and ability to address the needs of the media in Mongolia”, the statement read.
The IFJ said: “We stand with CMJ in calling on the government to have more inclusive consultations before drafting laws, such as this. The government should ensure that stakeholders, including CMJ, are part of the drafting process, and can provide important and professional advice, due to the wealth of knowledge they have in the media industry.”
