Section 1
SECTION 1. Whenever the price of any educational, scientific or cultural book, pamphlet and other written materials, whether of domestic or foreign origin, has become so exorbitant as to be detrimental to the national interest, as determined and declared by a committee composed of the Secretary of Education and Culture, the Director-General of the National Economic and Development Authority and the Chairman of the Media Advisory Council, such book, pamphlet or written material may be reprinted by the Government or by any private printer or printers for a limited period and only for the purpose of making the same available to the people at reasonable cost.
