Board of Review (Film Censorship)

12.

The draft Bill also provides for appeals. A film

distributor aggrieved by a decision of a censor or the

Film Censorship Authority may appeal to a board of review comprising the Secretary for Administrative Services and

Information as the ex officio chairman and the nine other

persons (not less than six of whom shall be non-officials)

as may from time to time be appointed by the Governor.

This provision will enable greater community involvement

in the review process than is provided for under the present Film Censorship Regulations (three officials and

three non-officials).
