A/HRC/41/35/Add.2 Recommendation Status alternatives. Draw up an inventory and a map of bandwidths throughout the country to identify those not in use so that the corresponding permits can be withdrawn (para. 94 (g)) Partially implemented. An inventory was prepared as part of the national plan to transition from analogue to digital television in 2013, however, it is unclear whether disused bandwidths were identified or any permits withdrawn on that basis. Digitize analogue communications services in the country and create a strategic reserve of radio frequencies (para. 94 (h)) Partially implemented. The process of digitizing communication services was initiated through the national plan to transition from analogue to digital television in 2013, and the transition from analogue to digital television is set to be completed at the end of 2019. Guarantee Internet access for all sectors of the population, particularly the poorest and those living in rural and/or remote locations (para. 94 (i)) Partially implemented. Programmes, including a free public Wi-Fi programme called “Internet del Pueblo”, have been implemented by the State, however, the most recent data from the International Telecommunication Union indicate that access to the Internet remains low, at 32.1 per cent of the population. Provide human rights training to all national police forces, as well as training on the use of force during peaceful demonstrations (para. 94 (j)) Implemented. However, this has proved ineffective in preventing serious human rights violations from being perpetrated by police during demonstrations. Educate members of the armed forces on the role played by journalists and human rights defenders in monitoring demonstrations (para. 94 (k)) Implemented. However, journalists and human rights defenders continue to face serious obstacles in the course of monitoring demonstrations, including excessive use of force. Ensure all police functions are performed by civilian forces only (para. 94 (l)) Contravened. Military forces have consistently been deployed to perform police functions, with the response of the State indicating that this policy will remain in place. Decriminalize defamation, slander and libel and convert them into civil matters (para. 95 (a)) Not implemented. Journalists and social communicators continue to face criminal proceedings under such charges. The proposals for the new penal code, which include a reduction in the maximum penalty for such offences and the application of fines, nevertheless fall short of meeting international human rights standards on freedom of expression. Protect journalists and social communicators from frivolous litigation (para. 95 (b)) Not implemented. Journalists and social communicators continue to be targeted by litigation based on their journalistic work, often in connection with the exposure of corruption. Apply the Transparency and Access to Public Information Act on a nondiscriminatory basis and carry out an Not implemented. The Act and work of the Institute was severely limited by Decree No. 418-2013 on the 13
