He also noted that the government has published on October 6, 2022, after the endorsement of the Committee on Education, Culture and Communication in the House of Representatives and the Committee on Education and Cultural and Social Affairs in the House of Councillors, the decree-law no. 2.22.770 enacting special provisions relating to the National Press Council.
