1.11 Media legislation evolves from meaningful consultations among state institutions, citizens and interest groups.
With regard to Law 96-04 of 22 February 1996, a panellist recalls that it is the
fruit of consultations between the minister in charge of the sector, the Senegalese
Union of Information and Communications Professionals (SYNPICS) and civil
society, on the basis of a draft proposed by press players and in the wake of
an important march for these freedoms in 1991. At the same time, the law
establishing the audiovisual regulatory body, the CNRA, had not been the subject
of consultations between the State, media players and civil society.
