Resumen de Albania: : Assessment study on the independence of the regulator
In November 2014, the Council of Europe office in Albania published the findings of an assessment on the independence and functioning of the Audiovisual Media Authority (AMA) in Albania. This study was commissioned by the Council of Europe on request of the Albanian Parliament. The aim of the study was to apply the INDIREG methodology to AMA and provide a contextual interpretation of the results with policy recommendations. The methodology used assessed the formal and de facto independence and functioning of the regulator in five aspects, including status and powers, financial autonomy, autonomy of the decision-makers, knowledge and transparency, and accountability.
