Montreal, April 20, 2010. The World Association of Community Radio Broadcasters (AMARC) expressed its grave concern today at the suspension of the Law # 26.522 of Audio-Visual Communication Services. The suspension was decided by the Federal Appeal Court of Mendoza arguing procedural problems in its passage by the Congress. The Court decision re-establishes previous broadcast legislation 22.285 that limited access to freedom of expression and that was adopted by decree and without discussion during the late military dictatorship in 1980. AMARC strongly supports the Argentinean civil society mobilisation that is calling for this judicial decision to be immediately reversed and for the new law to be implemented.
