Peruvian President Martin Vizcarra on Monday said his administration will file an action of unconstitutionality against the law that prohibits State-run institutions from advertising in privately-owned media.
According to the law —published today in El Peruano official gazette— public advertising will only be possible through State-run media outlets.
However, the prohibition does not apply to cases of national emergencies, disasters, or electoral education campaigns by the electoral organizations once elections have been called.
The said law affects all public entities, including private-law ones and those subject to special regimes, as well as local and regional governments.
