ANEM TOOK PART IN THE PUBLIC DEBATE ON THE REGULATOR’S DRAFT BY-LAWS
REGULATOR'S DRAFT BY-LAWS ON OWN PRODUCTION AND SHARE OF EUROPEAN AUDIO-VISUAL WORKS
In the period from 4 to 18 June 2015 Regulatory body for electronic media conducted a public debate on the Draft Rulebook on criteria and manner of increasing the share of European audiovisual works and the Draft Instruction on the application of the provisions of the Law on Electronic Media governing own production. ANEM participated in public debate with its written comments and suggestions.
Draft Rulebook on criteria and manner of increasing the share of European audiovisual works - ANEM pointed to the inconsistency of some provisions with the Law on Electronic Media: those that give the definition of related party in the context of determining who may be an European independent producer; those that define what media service providers are not obliged to respect the rules on the share of European audiovisual works and the work of European independent producers; introduction of the concrete period for fulfilling the obligations of specified share of European audiovisual works and European audiovisual works of independent producers in the total annual published program. ANEM also recommended the Rulebook should specify that this obligation applies only to the television media services providers to be clear that the radio media services providers do not have such obligation.
Draft Instruction on the application of the provisions of the Law on Electronic Media governing own production - Although it considered the Instruction was correctly done, ANEM stressed the need for providing the professional community and the media with the explanation on criteria the Regulatory body for electronic media used for the choice of whether the concrete issue it would regulate by the rulebook or the instruction, considering their different legal nature.
ANEM's written comments and suggestions are available only in Serbian, here.
