Lesotho Lesotho has still not passed legislation to create a public broadcaster. The Lesotho National Broadcasting Service (LNBS) is a part of the Ministry of Communications, Science and Technology, and according to the 2009 Lesotho Media Policy, the LNBS continues to operate ‘as an arm of the Government’. The LNBS is made up of:
Television Lesotho – which provides free-to-air television in Lesotho. It is important to note that terrestrial infrastructure is limited, which means that Television Lesotho is only accessible throughout the entire country via satellite.
Radio Lesotho – which provides two sound broadcasting channels or services that are available free-to-air throughout the entire country.
A Lesotho Broadcasting Corporation Bill was published in 2004, which bill aimed to transform the state broadcaster (the LNBS) into a public broadcaster; however, the bill was never enacted.
