The Electoral Media Commission should be granted more authority, including effective sanctioning powers for media outlets which do not comply with its decisions. The authorities should consider converting the Electoral Media Commission into a permanent body (as envisaged in Article 43 of the new Media Law) with a more general remit, but including specific duties and powers during electoral periods.
