Senate against king’s ransom for public radio and TV
The Senate rejected the amendment to the Act on radio and television and the Act on subscription fees, providing for the allocation of PLN 1.95 billion this year to state-owned public radio and television compensation for lost revenues from the subscription. There were 51 senators against the amendment, 45 were for and 1 abstained.
The amendment also repealed the provision in the Act on radio and television, limiting the number of members of the company's management board to 3 persons. Now the amendment will go back to the Sejm, which may reject the Senate veto.
