    "content": "the following new clause be inserted immediately after clause 32— Powers of the Commission. 32A. The Commission shall have all the powers incidental to and necessary for the effective discharge of its functions under this Act and any other written law and shall— (a) establish and maintain an internal mechanism for the resolution of disputes; (b) prescribe procedures for determination of disputes relating to the media; (c) receive, investigate and deal with complaints made against journalists and media enterprises; (d) summon and receive information of evidence relating to any matter. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, in this clause we actually deleted “Powers of the Council”. We agreed with the Media Council that they did not have those powers and therefore the powers were for the Commission. This is just superimposing Clause 7 into this particular clause 32(A), which will actually give the powers to the Commission."
