Media Committee endorses amendments to HRT Act

ZAGREB, July 2 (Hina) - The parliamentary media committee on Monday endorsed by majority vote a final bill of amendments to the Croatian Radio and Television (HRT) Act which are aimed, it was said, at dealing with the piled-up problems of the public broadcaster as well as the financial, management and programming crisis.

Culture Minister Andrea Zlatar Violic said that in order to ensure transparency, it was suggested that applications be invited for the positions of editor-in-chief and programming editor.

The Supervisory Board and the Programming Council can be formed when the majority of their members are appointed, she added.

The European Commission was interested in the HRT director general's powers and the way in which the director general is appointed, warning about the issue of qualified parliamentary majority in the appointment process and stressing that there is no ideal model in Europe to prevent political meddling in the work of the public broadcaster, the minister said.

Committee chair Branko Vuksic warned that the editor-in-chief would continue to be a political figure who was not elected democratically and that the Programming Council would be "a fig leaf."
