ANA – MPA — A draft bill to reestablish defunct public broadcaster ERT was released to public consultation on Monday afternoon, under the title “Regulations on issues of the state radio and television agency, Hellenic Radio and Television SA, and amendment of article 48 of Law 2190-1920.”<\/p>\n

The consultation period will end at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday.<\/p>\n

[…]It also said it was reinstating all the ERT staff who had permanent contracts by June 11, 2013 and said a fee of 3 euros would be introduced for ERT on PPC bills and the present name of the public broadcaster (“NERIT S.A.”) be replaced by ERT S.A.<\/p>\n

This is an interesting development for the Greek public broadcaster. Of course, even if the bill passes, it is unknown how this could affect shortwave radio relays.\u00a0I must say that I’m impressed that ERT Open has been\u00a0broadcasting on shortwave a good 1.5 years after they should have been closed down. (Personally, I hope they never go off the air as I love ERT Open’s\u00a0weekend music programs!)<\/p>\n

Again, many thanks Merkouris for sharing this schedule and breaking news. Please keep us informed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
