Consideration could be given to enhance the oversight role of the NCTR during and outside of the campaign period. The NCTR could publish detailed campaign coverage guidelines and media monitoring methodology which could include assessing the tone of coverage. Rather than relying on the data submitted by media outlets, the NCTR should conduct media monitoring fully and independently in a continuous and consistent manner. Media monitoring reports could be published on a regular basis throughout the whole campaign period, regardless of its duration.
