At least not directly, but their operators could be more prone to be  
implicated in some police investigation, because an exit-node IP may  
repeatedly appear in the log files of the pages where blocked requests  
will be redirected to.

Still, saying that censorship is now "official" might be a bit of a  
exaggeration. There is now an offical initiative by the government,  
the bill has still to be passed by the parliament.
