MNA National Desk: The cabinet on Monday approved a new draft of broadcast law to oversee radio, television and online news outlets and ensure they follow regulations, reported news agency.
The draft of the ‘Broadcast Act 2018’ was approved at a cabinet meeting chaired by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina at the Secretariat.
The proposed law would form a seven-member Broadcast Commission that would be appointed through recommendations from a search committee.
The commission will give broadcast licences and will be the sole authority on the registration of online media outlets.
