- A) Reasons given by the Member State for failure to achieve the proportions
A) Reasons given by the Member State for failure to achieve the proportions 1. Majority proportion of European works (Article 4) VMMa:
The broadcasting channel Kanaal 2 did not achieve the 50% proportion of European productions (although it achieved 41% in 2004). However, the percentage of independent productions has increased sharply compared with the previous report. If the three broadcasting channels of the Vlaamse Mediamaatschappij (VMMa) are considered together, the conclusion is that the requirements of Article 4 have been achieved. Therefore, the Flemish Community does not consider it necessary to take further action. SBS-Belgium: The broadcasting channel VT4 did not achieve the 50% proportion of European productions., In 2005, however, the figure was 30% compared with 25% in 2004. For 2006, a figure of 28% was reported. However, it must be pointed out that in June and July 2006 VT4 broadcast the football World Cup. Both the matches themselves and the accompanying programmes broadcast were ‘own’ productions, which by law are not included in the relevant transmission time. The majority of VT4 programming in prime time comprises local productions. These productions are very expensive for the broadcaster, given that they target a small market with fragmented advertising spending. More than 50% of the budget was spent on European productions, so this broadcasting channel, SBS, can indeed be said to be making genuine efforts to show European and independent productions. As a new broadcasting channel, Vijf Tv did not achieve the required proportion either. However, it was launched only on 1 October 2004, and was given limited broadcasting time and limited resources. With the limited budget, mainly bought-in programmes were broadcast. In 2006, a share of 29% was already achieved. Moreover, an average 4 hours per day are devoted to phone-in games. This time is not included in the statistics, however. These programmes are produced by a Dutch production company and therefore should, in the view of the Flemish authorities, be regarded as European productions. NV Telenet — Prime Only the broadcasting channels Prime Sport and Prime Sport 2 did not achieve the 50% proportion of European productions. Given their specific nature, however, these pay channels did not have to meet the requirement. Accordingly, it was not necessary to take action. The broadcasting channels Canal+ Blauw, Rood and Geel and Fezztival were operational until 2 September 2005. Since 3 September 2005, the 7 Prime channels have been active. The programming is not entirely comparable with the former Canal +, which is why for 2005 both the old and the new channels are included. Since Canal+ stopped broadcasting in September 2005, these channels were no longer taken into account for the 2006 statement.
Here the only comment to be made concerns the public broadcaster VRT for 2005 and 2006, and more specifically Canvas. VRT’s second broadcasting channel is divided between Ketnet (for children and young people) and Canvas (information, culture, education). Canvas’s broadcasts did not achieve the target set in Article 5. If both Ketnet and Canvas are considered as a whole, however, the target would have been met easily. Yüklə 6,13 Mb.
