Salvadorian non-profit asks for review of telecom law
Salvadorian telecom organization Red por el Derecho a las Comunicaciones (RedCo) has asked the country's senate to review the telecom law, including its spectrum auction system.
Roberto Rugamas, lawyer at RedCo, said that to change the spectrum auction method, which has been a subject of debate for months, the whole law should be reviewed.
"To reform an article, it's not just the article that needs to be reviewed, but the chapter and the whole law," he told Diario Co Laitno.
The Salvadorian senate, along with the supreme court, has been debating how to adjust the system of spectrum auctions to the reality of the country. As it is, the senate said, only the wealthy have access to spectrum.
Rugamas said that legislators need to take a more comprehensive and complete look at the law.
"There needs to be a definition of what a public contest is, and what community media are," he said.
"There is a situation of concentration of spectrum in only a few hands, which hinders freedom of expression," he added.
