Georgian Young Lawyers’ Association held a presentation of a study on must-carry regulation at Hotel Tbilisi Marriott on June 11, 2012.
The idea that Georgia should follow the suit of a number of other countries and apply the regulation of must-carry has been introduced in the Georgian broadcast market in recent years.
The study aimed at
• Establishing international standards;
• Analyzing legislation and experience of other countries, and
• the demand for must-carry regulation in Georgian broadcast market
International organizations, Chairman of the Georgian Parliament, Georgian MPs, GNCC representatives, local NGOs as well as other stakeholders and experts were invited to attend the presentation.
On May 7, 2012, members of the It Affects You Too campaign, including GYLA, submitted a legislative proposal on introduction of the must-carry regulation to Parliament but the proposal has not yet been discussed.
