He also stressed that the law No. 40 for year 1977 allow the freedom of forming parties, but the Committee itself imposes restrictions, since the beginning of its formation until maintaining stringent controls over the parties, which led to the imposition of many restrictions, especially with regard to the issue of financing the political parties.

Also, the Committee restricts communication with the public which led to the weakening of its role. He also clarified that the formation of parties must be by notification only to preserve the partisan life in Egypt.
