On 26 September 2014, the Swiss Parliament approved the introduction of a new broadcasting charge, which all households and businesses will have to pay whether they own a reception device or not. The Government (Bundesrat) had proposed the idea in May 2013 in response to technological advances, including the possibility of watching TV programmes on mobile phones. Both Chambers of Parliament approved the new system (the Nationalrat by 109 votes to 85 with 4 abstentions and the Ständerat by 28 votes to 14 with 3 abstentions).
