BATIC: RTS SUBSCRIPTION IS THE ELECTRIC METER TAX

BELGRADE, September 1, 2005 (Kurir) – President of the Democratic Christian Party of Serbia, Vladan Batic, announced yesterday that his party will submit a claim for revision of constitutionality of the Broadcasting Law's articles which stipulate payment of subscription for the Radio Television of Serbia. In this way, said Batic, citizens are not supposed to pay a TV subscription, but an “electric meter tax”. He said that democratically inclined viewers will not watch RTS programme. He pointed out that RTS had paid off all debts while Aleksandar Crkvenjakov was in charge, even though it had 2.000 employees more than today, and added that “astronomical journalistic fees were then impossible”.
