The Consiliul Naţional al Audiovizualului (National Audiovisual Council - CNA) adopted Decision No. 128 of 14 March 2017 with regard to amending CNA Decision No. 72/2012 on the conditions for issuing and amending the notice of retransmission (see inter alia IRIS 2015-8/29).

A single modification was approved to Article 4 concerning the elements of the notice of retransmission, in the sense that the existing Article 4 became Article 4(1) and a new paragraph (2) was added:

2) The frequency allocation of program services shall reflect the following requirements: a) the television program services are grouped by their topical category; b) the frequencies for radio services are allocated after the allocation of frequencies for television program services. Decision No. 72/2012 had already been modified by the CNA Decision No. 350/2015 in relation to the rules to be observed by the service programmes providers as regards must-carry programmes.
