The National Assembly passed amendments to the law on the Public
Services and Economic Competition Regulatory Commission. According
to the amendments, the commission is entitled to boosting competition
among the media.
By the way, the Commission of Karabakh also deals with the TV and
radio frequencies. However, since the commission has just been
set up, those who wished to set up a TV company had nowhere to turn
to. Therefore, there is only one local channel in Karabakh – the Public
Television. Apparently, the government decided to enable opening
an alternative channel. Although, unfortunately, there was no such
opportunity before the election. However, it is not late to do it now.
