redaction


Explanation:
Keep in mind, languages do not translate word for word. In this case, the sentence should be:
'The <Governing body> did not state a position on <XXXX>'s redaction....'

Redaction is a method of editing out information with the use of black boxes, that can cover single words or entire pages. A text edited in this manner has been redacted.

Example sentence(s):
  • The government's redaction of the document prevented the scope of the case from becoming publicly known.
  • The press release was heavily redacted by the legal department.
