During the latest meeting of the
legal committee on Monday,
Safadi passionately reiterated the council's unwavering support for public
freedoms, Ammon News reported.
A goal to fortify freedoms
He emphasized that their goal is to fortify these freedoms,
while also drawing attention to the critical need for discernment. Safadi
highlighted the distinction between responsible freedom and the
dangers of defamation, insult, and the spreading of harmful rumors that have unfortunately
become all too common on various social media platforms.
He underscored the necessity of addressing these issues
legally to safeguard the rights of individuals and protect the
fabric of our society.
In light of the ever-evolving landscape of freedom and
inclusivity in the country, Safadi emphasized that the council is eager to hear
the diverse opinions on this important law.
Active in the decision-making process
He expressed their
commitment to fostering a society where everyone is actively involved in
decision-making processes. This commitment, he noted, is in line with the
guidance and vision of His Majesty King Abdullah, who advocates for a political
system that fosters a parliamentary culture grounded in well-defined programs
and ideologies.
The call for joint participation in discussing the
Electronic Crimes Law is not merely a formality but a genuine effort to create
a balanced and effective legal framework. Safadi urged the government to step
up its efforts to promote legal awareness, dispelling confusion, and
clearing misconceptions surrounding the law.
