Transparency of media ownership (covered domains - Media & Printed Works)

Art. 7a was introduced with an Act for the Mandatory Deposit of Printed and Other Works and Announcing Media Service Broadcasters and Providers, which stipulates that "By 30 June each year all media service providers submit to the Ministry of Culture a declaration from a template approved by the Minister of Culture, which identifies its actual owner and contains information on whether the actual owner occupies a public position, as well as about all funding received in the preceding calendar year, its amount and justification, including details of the entity who provided the funding."
The provisions of Directive (EU) 2018/1808 introduce an obligation for the Electronic Media Council, whose registers will now include a link to information on ownership structure and the actual owners of media service providers.
