EU: AA Protest At Convention Compromise

The Advertising Association has written to the UK Government to protest against the proposed consolidated text of the revised European convention on transfrontier broadcasting. It is particularly concerned about Article 24A of the revision.

The Advertising Association holds that this revised article “is the first documentary and legislative departure from the principle of country of origin, and this could have more serious ramifications once it is translated through into the structures of the European Union in the future.”
