The government is set to discuss on Monday a proposal to abolish direct television and radio fees and replace them with funding for Czech Television and Czech Radio from the state budget. At the same time, ministers are to decide how much the two institutions should receive next year. Households currently pay Czech Television 150 crowns per month and Czech Radio 55 crowns per month. zpravy.aktualne.cz ↗
Czech Television and Czech Radio have not yet reached an agreement with the government coalition on changing the funding of public-service media. Minister of Culture Oto Klempíř is to submit a bill abolishing the fees, but a fixed amount for the two media outlets has not yet been published. Also in play is an expansion of the Supreme Audit Office's oversight of the public-service media's finances. forum24.cz ↗
Czech Radio Director General René Zavoral has already admitted that reaching an agreement with the coalition is proving difficult. Czech Television and Czech Radio are demanding a safeguard that would make it harder for politicians to interfere with their budgets, but the Minister of Culture is rejecting it. According to a survey by the agency ResSOLUTION, nearly half of people in the Czech Republic view the proposal as a threat to the independence of both institutions. idnes.cz ↗
Because of the planned funding changes, employees of Czech Television and Czech Radio are preparing a warning strike for June 22, which is to last 24 hours. Separately, Czech Television's dispute with Václav Moravec continues. In the Prachatice region, a separate issue remains the town of Vimperk's plan to repair the decaying Steinbrener Printworks and turn it into a cultural and community center. seznamzpravy.cz ↗
