AVMSD - Implementation - Contact Committee

Contact Committee

Dir 97/36/EC established the Contact Committee (now Article 29 AVMSD), to monitor the implementation of the Directive and the developments in the sector and as a forum for the exchange of views.

It deals not only with the existing audiovisual policy but also with the relevant developments arising in this sector. The committee will also help the Member States with their national reports which have to be written every two years.

The committee should pay special attention to technical developments in the audiovisual sector.

Chaired by the Commission and composed of representatives of the authorities of the Member States, it may be convened at the request of any of the delegations.
