Current and future regulatory challenges Sarajevo 2005 Timár János - ORTT
2
Not to speak about: - the challenges of the digital area - the future of public service - the platform neutral content regulation - the protection of minors - the independence of the regulatory bodies - etc.
3
To speak about: - regulatory authority or supervisory authority - co-regulation, self-regulation and legal regulation
4
In Hungary the National Radio and Television Commission (ORTT) by legal point of view is a supervisory authority, not a regulatory authority
5
The paragraph 41 in the media law enumerates the responsibilities of the commission and there is only one point which speaks about a kind of regulatory functions: (ORTT) „shall prepare positions and proposals in respect of the theoretical issues of the development of the Hungarian broadcasting system...”
6
ORTT had a general standpoint how to count the coverage area of a concrete cable network. The Constitutional Court cancelled the ORTT general decision, the standpoint how to count, because of the legal security and the system of Hungarian legislation.
7
From the Hungarian media system is missing the legal possibility of co- regulation. The professional rules and the legal rules are different and there is no passage between them. Regulatory codes are also missing.

contract with the terrestrial broadcasters. Public Service Statutes
9
The challenge for a Hungarian commissioner is the way to take over from European method, to hand over some rules to self- and co-regulators. If we will not change our system it can happen that some part of the media world, which is ruled by co-regulation in Europe will be unregulated.

parallel regulation on some topics with other laws - requirement of factual, up-to-date, objective information - right for good repute, human dignity
