Film Appeal Committee's decision to release Beauty and the Beast

PETALING JAYA: The Film Appeal Committee - and not the Film Censorship Board - made the decision to release Disney’s live-action film Beauty and the Beast without cuts, the Home Ministry clarified.

"The view that the Film Censorship Board had made a u-turn or overturned its decision in the Beauty and the Beast movie cuts is unfounded," the Home Ministry said in a statement on Wednesday.
