<br>
There appears to be too many parallel efforts at dealing with the bills or sections related to the media and communications industry. So much effort was already made in reviewing the two Bills. I am not too sure the current initiatives are are meant to build
onto the efforts already made before. And don't the people involved in the new initiative have an idea about who the stakeholders are? I have not seen any targeted invitation, beyond the said newspaper advert.
