Journalist Syndicate Proposes Freedom of Information Bill
The President of the Journalists Syndicate, Khaled Al-Balshi, and Deputy Maha Abdel Nasser submitted a bill to regulate the right to freedom of information in Egypt after gathering 60 signatures from MPs. The aim is to facilitate public access to general information and make data available to enhance transparency and strengthen tools to combat rumors. The law seeks to protect the right to non-sensitive information, establish an independent body to monitor compliance with disclosure requirements, and define mechanisms for classifying information. It also obliges public and private entities to publish information continuously and promptly, especially data with significant political or economic impact. This project is considered an important step to bolster democracy and is expected to be prioritized in Parliament due to its role in supporting investment and national security, as well as addressing the spread of false news.
