In the same context, it emphasised its commitment not to exercise prior control over the content of programs and not to permit any party to intervene in the editorial line of radio and television channels.

In this context, it explained that it fulfils its monitoring role after the broadcast of audiovisual programs. HAICA evoked that its principal role is to guarantee freedom of expression and of the press as well as the diversification of opinions.
