Newstalk ZB can reveal allegations the Christchurch Call has silenced members of its Advisory Network - and pressured them to not release critical reports of member countries.

Because of that, a group called the Internet Governance Project, has quit.

Project founder and Network reviewer, Milton Mueller says India wasn't honouring its commitments.

"They really didn't seem to have much of an official commitment to go along with the Christchurch Call at all, so we simply wrote that up."

Meanwhile, the Government says it will soon reveal whether it will keep paying Dame Jacinda Ardern to work on the Christchurch Call.
