Resumen de "The former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia": : New Regulation on Promotion of European Works
On 4 December 2014, the media regulation authority, the Agency for Audio and Audiovisual Media Services, adopted a by-law regulation, based on the provisions in Article 18 of the broadcasting law, which regulates the broadcasting of European works and works of independent producers. The by-law act, the Rulebook on Broadcasting European Audiovisual Works and Works of Independent Producers (Правилник за емитување европски аудиовизуелни дела и дела од независни продуценти), defines more precisely the types of broadcast programming that could be considered as a “European audiovisual work” or as a “work of an independent producer”. The obligations from this rulebook refer only to broadcasters with national coverage, while regional and the local broadcasters, niche TV channels which broadcast news, sports events, advertising and teleshopping, as well as the Parliamentary Channel are exempt from this obligation.
