In addition, such a restriction is not in the public interest as it would reduce access to information that the public needs to make an informed choice. In fact, it is those parties that do not receive state funding that would be most in need of free airtime to voice their opinions and present their programmes to the electorate. It is recommended to review the draft amendments to ensure that opportunities of political parties to address electorate are not restricted and voters are given a chance to make an informed choice.
