33. What criteria determine allocation for free or subsidized access to media for political parties?

'Section 86       The Election Commission shall allocate airtime to every political party which has a candidate elected as a member of the House of Representatives. In allocating such airtime, consideration will be given to the number of each political party’s members in the House of Representatives, in order that each political party may take action under Section 23 or report its activities once a year or more free of charge under the rules and procedures prescribed by the Election Commission.

            State radio and television stations shall allocate airtime as prescribed by the Election Commission."
