According to the Information and National Guidance minister, Jim Muhwezi, this was after careful scrutiny with a view to addressing its ambiguity to ease its applicability in Uganda.

Also approved are the Anti-Pornography Regulations, 2015, which is intended to ease the implementation of the Anti-Pornography Act, 2014.

Among others, the new guidelines specifically bar obscene publications and staging of erotic and nude drama and/or dances in Uganda.

The guidelines also prohibit broadcasting of sexually explicit material, in form of still pictures, video footage and vulgar presenter utterances on our media air-waves.

Cabinet has also authorized the Minister of Ethics and Integrity to issue a Statutory Instrument to gazette the Anti-Pornography Regulations, 2015, so that enforcement can commence immediately.
