Recommendation Media, paragraph 4 (Media) Nigeria 2003

A comprehensive system of access should be developed for parties and candidates for both private and public broadcasters that includes party political broadcasts. Where necessary the broadcasters should be compensated for providing access (either from license concessions or regulated and transparent payment systems). This system should be regulated by a consistent and independent procedure that is non-partisan. A clear set of guidelines should be developed for this access together with a legal framework that ensures that party political broadcasts remain within the parameters of the legal framework. Transparency, editorial independence and accountability should be guaranteed.
