- konkluderede forfatningsdomstolen, at overvågningen inden for telekommunikationssektoren, dvs. opsporing af journalisters telefonopkald, ikke udgjorde et brud på forfatningsmæssige friheder som fastsat i artikel 10 og 19 i den tyske grundlov, som sikrer oplysningers fortrolighed - ville et lovgivningsforslag foreslået af forbundsrådet i september 2003, som skulle sikre enkeltpersoner bedre beskyttelse mod uautoriseret fotografering, straffe overtrædelse heraf med fængselsdomme på op til to år eller tilsvarende straffe - findes der ingen lov, der sikrer adgang til offentlige myndigheders dokumenter på nationalt (dvs. føderalt) plan, og at kun fire delstater har indført sådan lovgivning
- the Federal Constitutional Court found that surveillance of telecommunications (i.e. the tracing of journalists’ phone calls) did not constitute a breach of constitutional liberties as provided for in Articles 10 and 19 of the Basic Law, which guarantee confidentiality of information, - a legislative proposal introduced by the Bundesrat in September 2003 and intended to afford individuals better protection against unauthorised photographing would punish infringements with prison sentences of up to two years or equivalent fines, - there is no law ensuring access to documents of public authorities at the national (i.e. federal) level and that only four of the federal states have enacted such legislation;
- hævdes det, at forlagsvirksomheden Agora, der ejer de mest solgte dagblade samt 20 lokalradioer og 11 tidsskrifter, blev bedt om at betale bestikkelsespenge for "lobbyisme", således at der kunne indføres en mere gunstig medielovgivning, der ville gøre det muligt for forlaget at købe en privat fjernsynsstation - skønnes det, at udenlandske investeringer inden for trykte medier udgør 40 % af sektoren, og at dette skaber problemer for den journalistiske frihed i forhold til udenlandske forlag og dermed fører til mindre gunstige arbejdsvilkår end i de polske virksomheder, hvor der ikke tilskyndes til professionalisme Det skal dog bemærkes, at adskillige udenlandske virksomheder i Polen, nemlig den norske Orkla-gruppe og den tyske forlagsvirksomhed Springer-Verlag, frivilligt har indført interne regler for at beskytte deres skrivende medarbejdere mod pres udefra og for at adskille ledelsesmæssige og redaktionelle forpligtelser (OSCE). - er der begrænsninger for pressens interne frihed, jf. presselovens artikel 10, hvori det er fastsat, at en journalist skal overholde og følge de generelle principper, som forlæggeren fastsætter - findes der i øjeblikket ingen regler med hensyn til mediefusioner og beskyttelse af pluralisme, og der er tilsyneladende heller ikke planer om at indføre sådanne regler
- the publishing company Agora, which owns the top-selling daily newspaper and 20 local radio stations and 11 magazines, allegedly ‘was asked to pay a bribe for "lobbying" to achieve a more favourable media law allowing the publisher to acquire a private television station’, - it is estimated that foreign investment in the print media covers 40% of the sector, and that this poses problems for journalistic freedoms with foreign publishers creating less-favourable working conditions than for their own companies, which discourages professionalism, It should however be noted that several foreign companies operating in Poland, namely the Norwegian Orkla-group and the Springer-Verlag Group ‘have voluntarily introduced internal rules to protect their writing staff from outside pressure and to separate managerial and editorial responsibilities’(OSCE). - there is a restriction of internal freedom of the press within Article 10 of the Press law, which stipulates that a journalist must obey and follow the general principles of his/her publisher, - there are currently no provisions (and no apparent plans to introduce provisions) in Polish media law regarding media concentration and the protection of pluralism;
- er der en høj koncentration inden for både fjernsyns- og pressesektoren, hvor tre hovedudbydere kontrollerer mindst 85 % af markedet, og at dette marked også domineres af tre vigtige kabeloperatører, selv om Nederlandene har den højeste gennemtrængningsgrad for ydelser vedrørende kabel-tv i Europa
- there is a high level of concentration in both the television and press sectors where the three main suppliers control at least 85 % of the market and that, although the Netherlands has the highest penetration of cable TV services in Europe, this market is also dominated by three major cable operators,
- foregår der en intens debat i kølvandet på Hutton-rapporten om omstændighederne omkring videnskabsmanden og regeringsrådgiveren David Kelly's død, kritik fra det statslige radio- og tv-selskabs side af regeringens motiver til at deltage i krigen i Irak, tilbagetrædelsen af generaldirektøren og formanden for bestyrelsen og de potentielle følger for praksis for dybdeborende journalistik, og uafhængigt heraf er der megen debat om revisionen af BBC's "Charter and Agreement", der gælder som model for andre systemer
- there is intense debate following the Hutton Report into the circumstances surrounding the death of scientist and Government advisor, David Kelly, the criticism by the public-service broadcaster of the reasons put forward by the government for the war in Iraq, the resignation of the Director-General and the Chairman of the Board of Governors and the potential ramifications for the practice of investigative journalism and, separately, there is much debate concerning the review of the BBC’s Charter and Agreement, which is considered a model for other systems;
– har de ansatte i det spanske fjernsyn (statslig public service-station) offentliggjort en rapport, hvori de fordømmer dårlig faglig praksis for at fremprovokere ikke-afbalanceret, partisk eller manipuleret information i perioden mellem den 28. februar og den 5. marts vedrørende nyheder om den militære indsats i Irak.
Notes, as regards Spain , that:
57. bemærker, at Mediaset-gruppen, der ejes af Silvio Berlusconi, er den vigtigste private massemediegruppe i Italien og på verdensplan, som bl.a. kontrollerer tv-net (RTI S.p.A.) og reklamevirksomheder (Publitalia '80), som begge af tilsynsmyndighederne for medierne, i modstrid med den nationale lovgivning (lov 247/97), officielt betragtes som havende dominerende markedsstatus (afgørelse 226/03) Mediaset-gruppen kontrollerer:
Notes that the Mediaset group owned by Silvio Berlusconi is the largest private television and communications group in Italy and the world, which controls (inter alia) television networks (RTI S.p.A.) and advertising franchise holders (Publitalia '80), both of which have been formally found to hold a dominant position in breach of national law (Law 247/97) by the Communications Regulatory Authority (decision 226/03) The Mediaset group controls:

- the 'Il Giornale' newspaper (owned by his brother, Paolo Berlusconi) and the 'Il Foglio' newspaper (owned by his wife, Veronica Lario), ;
59. påpeger, at Silvio Berlusconi, siden han overtog hvervet som ministerpræsident i 2001, ikke har afklaret sin interessekonflikt, hvilket han udtrykkeligt havde forpligtet sig til, men tværtimod har øget sin kontrolandel i selskabet Mediaset (fra 48,639 % til 51,023 %), hvorved han reducerede sit eget nettounderskud drastisk via en mærkbar stigning i reklameindtægterne til ulempe for konkurrenternes indtægter (og seer- og lyttertal) og især for den trykte presses reklamefinansiering;
Notes that Silvio Berlusconi, since his appointment to the post of President of the Italian Council of Ministers in 2001, has not resolved his conflict of interests as he had explicitly pledged, but on the contrary has increased his controlling shareholding in the company Mediaset (from 48.639% to 51.023%), thereby drastically reducing his own net debt through a marked increase in advertising revenue to the detriment of competitors' revenues (and ratings) and, above all, of advertising funding for the written press;
62. konstaterer, at radio- og tv-systemet i Italien i årtier har arbejdet under forhold uden for legalitetens rammer, hvilket gentagne gange er blevet fastslået af forfatningsdomstolen, og at den almindelige lovgiver og de ansvarlige institutioner stillet heroverfor har været ude af stand til at genetablere legale forhold: Rai og Mediaset kontrollerer hver især fortsat tre jordbaserede analoge tv-sendere, til trods for at forfatningsdomstolen i dom nr. 420/1994 havde fastslået, at det ikke tillades en og samme operatør at udsende over 20% af tv-programmerne på jordfrekvenser inden for et nationalt område (dvs. mere end to programmer), og havde erklæret bestemmelserne i lov nr. 223/90 for værende i modstrid med den italienske forfatning, selv om der er tale om en "overgangsordning"; ikke engang i lov nr. 249/97 (oprettelse af myndigheden for garantier for kommunikation og regler inden for telekommunikations- og radio/tv-systemer) blev der taget hensyn til påbuddene fra forfatningsdomstolen, som i dom nr. 466/02, erklærede artikel 3, stk. 7, for forfatningsstridig, for så vidt som den ikke fastsætter nogen fast slutfrist, der under ingen omstændigheder kan ligge senere end den 31. december 2003, hvor programmer, som operatørerne udsender uden at overholde de i stk. 6 i samme artikel 3 fastsatte begrænsninger, skal transmitteres udelukkende via satellit eller kabel;
Notes that in Italy the broadcasting system has been operating in extralegal circumstances for decades, as repeatedly recognised by the Constitutional Court, and in the face of which the efforts of the ordinary legislator and the competent institutions have proved ineffective in re-establishing a legal regime; RAI and Mediaset each continue to control three terrestrial analogue television broadcasters, despite the fact that the Constitutional Court in its judgement No 420 of 1994 has ruled it impermissible for one and the same entity to broadcast over 20% of the television programmes transmitted domestically on terrestrial frequencies (i.e. more than two programmes) and has found the regulatory regime under Law No 223/90 to be contrary to the Italian Constitution, despite being a 'transitional regime'; nor did Law No 249/97 (establishing the Communications Guarantee Authority and rules on telecommunication and radio and television systems) abide by the prescriptions of the Constitutional Court which, in its judgement 466/02, declared the constitutional illegitimacy of Article 3(7) thereof, 'insofar as it does not provide for the establishing of a hard-and-fast deadline, in any event not exceeding 31 December 2003, by which the programmes transmitted by broadcasters exceeding the limits referred to in paragraph 6 of Article 3 must be broadcast exclusively via satellite or via cable';
Forfatningsdomstolen, dom nr. 826/88, dom af 1994 (nr. 420, GURI nr. 51 af 14. december 1994) og dom nr. 466/2002. ;
The Constitutional Court, Judgement No 826/88, Judgement of 1994 (No 420, GURI No 51, 14 December 1994) and Judgement 466/2002. ;
67. under s treger sin dybe bekymring over den manglende overholdelse af loven og manglende gennemførelse af forfatningsdomstolens domme i modstrid med princippet om legalitet og retsstatsforhold samt den manglende evne til at reformere landets audiovisuelle sektor, hvilket igennem flere årtier år i høj grad har svækket borgernes ret til pluralistisk information, en ret, som også anerkendes i EU's charter om grundlæggende rettigheder;
Highlights its deep concern in relation to the non-application of the law and the non-implementation of the judgements of the Constitutional Court, in violation of the principle of legality and of the rule of law, and at the incapacity to reform its audiovisual sector, as a result of which the right of its citizens to pluralist information has been considerably weakened for decades; a right which is also recognised in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights;
69. beklager, at det italienske parlament endnu ikke har vedtaget nogen bestemmelser, der kan afklare ministerpræsidentens interessekonflikt, således som Silvio Berlusconi havde lovet at sørge for inden for hans regerings første 100 dage;
Regrets that the Italian Parliament has yet to adopt a regulation resolving the conflict of interests of the President of the Italian Council of Ministers, which is what Silvio Berlusconi had promised to do within the first hundred days of his government;
a) en gennemgang af de eksisterende foranstaltninger og fremgangsmåder, både i medlemsstaterne og på europæisk plan, for at tilskynde til politisk og kulturel pluralisme i og mellem redaktionerne indbyrdes og fremme en analyse af eventuelle mangler også i erkendelse af de økonomiske udfordringer i forbindelse med at garantere pluralisme på mindre og særlige markeder som lokale og små landdistrikter b) en grundig undersøgelse af mulighederne for foranstaltninger på baggrund af Kommissionens nuværende kompetencer og forpligtelser til at sikre en høj grad af beskyttelse af menneskerettighederne c) en undersøgelse af de foranstaltninger, der bør iværksættes af medlemsstaterne, og af de foranstaltninger, der bør iværksættes af de europæiske institutioner d) en undersøgelse af brugen af relevante instrumenter, herunder brugen af ikke-bindende instrumenter i første fase, som derefter kan resultere i bindende instrumenter, hvis medlemsstaterne ikke iværksætter tilstrækkelige foranstaltninger e) en høring vedrørende en eventuel handlingsplan for foranstaltninger, der skal iværksættes på EU-plan eller af medlemsstaterne for at sikre et tilstrækkeligt niveau af pluralisme på tværs af EU;
(a) a review of existing measures and practices, both in the Member States and at European level, designed to encourage political and cultural pluralism within or between editorial offices, including with regard to content, and promote an analysis of any shortcomings, acknowledging the economic challenges to guaranteeing pluralism on smaller and specific markets like local or small country regions, (b) a thorough examination of the possibility of action based on its existing competencies and its obligations to ensure a high level of protection of human rights, (c) an examination of the measures which should be taken by the Member States and those which should be taken by the European institutions, (d) an examination of the use of appropriate instruments, including the use of non‑binding instruments during a first stage which could then lead to binding instruments if insufficient action is taken by the Member States, and (e) a consultation procedure on a possible action plan of measures to be taken at the EU level or by the Member States to ensure an adequate level of pluralism across the European Union;
81. minder om, at Kommissionens aktion under alle omstændigheder skal være baseret på proportionalitetsprincippet, jf. artikel 5, stk. 3, i traktaten om oprettelse af Det Europæiske Fællesskab, hvor det fastsættes, at "Fællesskabet kun handler i det omfang, det er nødvendigt for at nå denne traktats mål";
Recalls that the Commission’s action should, however, be based on the principle of proportionality laid down in the last paragraph of Article 5 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, which stipulates that any action by the Community shall not go beyond what is necessary to achieve the objectives of the Treaty;
85. mener, at det, såfremt det nærer politisk betænkelighed over for mediemangfoldigheden og -pluralismen i en af medlemsstaterne, bør have mulighed for frit at indlede procedurer, hvor det kan undersøge situationen inden i sidste instans at gøre brug af sin initiativret, jf. artikel 7, stk. 1;
Considers that, where Parliament has political misgivings regarding media diversity and pluralism in one of the Member States, it should have the possibility of independently initiating procedures to investigate the matter before using, as a last resort, its right of initiative under Article 7(1);
89. pålægger sin formand at sende denne beslutning til Rådet, Kommissionen og Europarådet samt til medlemsstaternes og tiltrædelseslandenes regeringer og parlamenter.
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the Council of Europe and the governments and parliaments of the Member States and the accession countries.
The rapporteur welcomes this opportunity for the Parliament to reexamine the issue of pluralism in the media.

It may be noted how technological development is permitting the ever-greater proliferation of interactive services (pay-TV), to the point where this will soon become a mass phenomenon.

This may render obsolete the Commission's distinction between mass communication and individual communication (cf. its text on audiovisual policy and creating favourable conditions for the expansion of the European programme industry's companies - COM(1994) 523 ). , prepared a draft directive on the protection of pluralism.

Unfortunately, and despite some real gestures of encouragement by the Commissioner concerned On 26 September 1995 Mario Monti, then Commissioner for the internal market, told the EP's Committee on Culture:'I have to repeat once again that there is no contradiction between the objective of pluralism and that of the internal market.
