The media and the legislative arm of government are once again headed for collision, after the Powers and Privileges bill sailed through to the third reading stage. If enacted into law, the bill is likely to have far reaching implications of how the media covers parliamentary proceedings. This is because the Adan Keynan sponsored bill has four controversial clauses that target the freedom of media in reporting what transpires in the National Assembly. And as Achola Simon reports, the bill also proposes hefty fines for those that will be found flouting its stringent regulations.
