According to Section 16 of the Broadcasting and Telecommunication Act, where any matter (including an advertisement) intended for broadcasting is, in the opinion of the Minister, of an objectionable nature, the Minister may by order in writing prohibit the broadcasting of the matter unless suitably amended in the manner specified by the Minister in the order, so as to remove the objectionable nature of the matter. The Act has been repealed by the Communications Act 2023, in which the above broadcasting restriction has been removed.
