In IRIS 1996-5: 10 we published an overview of the state of Signatures and Ratifications of, inter alia , the European Convention on Transfrontier Television, on 1 May 1996. We reported that Hungary signed this Convention on 29 January 1990. In the meantime, Hungary also ratified the Convention. Ratification took place on 2 September 1996, which means that the Convention will enter into force for Hungary on 1 January 1997.

The instrument of ratification was accompanied by a Reservation and a Declaration. Both are available from the Observatory in English or French, upon request.
