    Evaluation of Media Cooperation under the Danish Arab Partnership Programme (2005-12) Annex G: Country profiles May 2013 Annex G Country profiles Country profile – Egypt1 Freedom of expression and access to media The authoritarian regimes in the MENA region In brief - Egypt have implemented “multiple layers”2 of media legislation, controlling the establishment, the Inhabitants 82.5 million access and the distribution of media. Penalty Literacy rate 66% laws were used to criminalise critical journalism, Press outlets 566 invalidating the right of free expression as % of households with access to TV 96.5 stated in their constitutions. Radio (n.a. radio sets) 20.5 million Internet 36% The legal framework governing the media in Mobile phone subscriptions 82 million Egypt "is very complex, with overlapping rules set out in different pieces of legislation" which "formally establish a strict regime of control over the media, which is very much under government control."3 The IMS-coordinated National Coalition for Media Reform (NCMR) has drafted concrete suggestions for a new set of media legislation comprising a press law, a public service media and a private broadcasting law, which were outlined to Parliamentarians and two Ministers of the current Government. But the first round of drafting was lost with the approval of the new constitution in the referendum in December 2012 whose vague language, critics say, poses new problems to the media.4 Other primary aims are still pending, like the establishment of an independent media supervisory body in Egypt, the seven media-related laws restricting freedom of expression and access to the media in Egypt, and transparency in the licensing process.
