title: "Government cancels all NOCs and permits issued to officials"
description: "Most outlets reported that the federal government has cancelled all No Objection Certificates (NOCs) and permissions previously issued to government officers. The focus was on the directive for officials to reapply under the new 2026 Conduct Rules. One outlet specified that the move was under the old rules, while others did not mention this detail. The framing across the excerpts remained largely consistent, with the main emphasis on the cancellation and the directive to reapply."
