The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) conducted an adjudication hearing on Wednesday on the complaint filed by former actress Nadia Montenegro against Cristy Fermin, host of �The Buzz,� who was recently suspended by ABS-CBN.

The network and the board agreed that �Buzz� main host Boy Abunda will make a public apology on the Sunday afternoon talk show for the �uncontrollable behavior� of Fermin during an interview on Oct. 5 regarding her feud with Montenegro.

ABS-CBN was represented in Wednesday�s closed-door hearing by business unit head Louie Andrada and executive producer Nancy Yabut, the network�s legal director Mona Lisa Manalo and assistant liaison for the MTRCB Daisy Parungao. The board was represented by vice-chair Marc Castrodes and members Noel del Prado and Cristine Concordia.

After the hearing, the network representatives, committed to pre-tape segments that tackle sensitive issues, for self-regulation.

The network also promised to publish a public apology in a major daily, �on a best-efforts basis,� said board chair Marissa Laguardia.
