 To ensure that both the Censorship and Appeal Board are properly constituted and functional at all times.  The Minister of Home Affairs must ensure that police, at all levels are divested of ��competence’ to censor or ban events or artistic exhibitions which is the prerogative of the Censorship Board, unless they are enforcing declarations of the Board banning certain materials or events.  The Censorship Act needs to be spruced up cosmetically by repealing obsolete references such as ‘Police Force’, ‘Attorney-General’ substituting for appropriate references in line with the 2013 Constitution.  Standards of censorship such as ‘national security’, ‘public health’, public morality’ and ‘public order’ must be clearly defined in the definitions part of the Censorship Act (Section 1) so that limitations of artistic freedom conform to international law parameters. 5.3  Reform of the broadcasting services sector The Government must reconstitute the Broadcasting Authority of Zimbabwe (BAZ) with new appointees taking oath of office in line with public leadership and governance principles in Chapter 9 of the Constitution.  The independence of the new BAZ board must be guaranteed and respected to eliminate, as far as possible, executive interference on political grounds.  Government must continue efforts to issue licences to community radio stations as these small broadcasters have substantial influence on the exercise of freedom of artistic expression by granting local artists access to showcase talents.  BAZ must revise downwards the fees for licences to ease the financial burden for applicants for community broadcasting services. The exorbitant fees required are perceived as a deliberate move to prevent new entrants into the sector. 83 | P a g e
