The prefect of Bihor County, Emilian Pavel, has introduced a new accreditation regulation for journalists, requiring them to verify information and distinguish between facts and opinions. Local press has reacted negatively, calling for the removal of these intrusive provisions. The Prefecture stated it will review the situation with legal experts. The new rules aim to clarify accreditation processes and improve relations with the media, ensuring public interest information is disseminated effectively. Journalists must now document and publish materials responsibly, with potential accreditation withdrawal for violations. However, these measures conflict with existing laws on public information access, prompting further protests from local journalists.
