The minister on the occasion said the social communication sector’s agents are not unaware of the social transformations occurring in the sociaty.
According to him, the society and the events that affect it recommend new methods of production of contents and new solutions to the treatment of information that tend to affect the organisation and functioning of the organs and social communication services.
Manuel Homem added that the adjustment to the package constitutes a challenge to the audiences, with a view to the emergence of a set of laws more harmonised with the constitution and more adjusted to the needs and realities of the the society itself.

During the event, minister Manuel Homem inaugurated the electronic platform www.consultapública.gov.ao, through which contributions can be channelled.
The current Social Communication package was passed by the National Assembly in 2016, comprising the Press Law, the Television Activity Law, the Radio Activity Law, the Advertisement Law and the Journalists Statute Law.
