Hungary's ruling Fidesz party has postponed a parliamentary debate and vote on a controversial bill aiming to limit foreign funding of media organisations and NGOs, the party's parliamentary leader has said.
A lawmaker in Prime Minister Viktor Orban's party last month filed a draft law entitled "Transparency in Public Life" that would allow the government to monitor, restrict, penalise and ban media outlets and NGOs it deems a threat to the country's sovereignty.
