The High Authority for Media and Audiovisual Media in Chad has decided to temporarily freeze the processing of applications to create online newspapers. The regulator cites the need to better regulate a rapidly growing sector.
Chad's High Authority for Media and Audiovisual (HAMA) has announced the suspension of the review of applications to establish online newspapers. The measure, the duration of which has not been specified, aims, according to the regulator, to strengthen the oversight of a sector experiencing rapid growth in the country.
HAMA justifies this decision by citing the need to adapt the regulatory framework to the proliferation of digital media. The regulator did not specify the criteria or reforms planned before a possible resumption of case processing.
