Key issues in the AVMSD revision debates: Video-sharing platforms and regulator independence

Research output: Other contribution

Abstract

Since the European Commission published its proposal for revisions to the Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD) in May 2016, there have been countless stakeholder meetings and discussions and well-over a thousand amendments proposed by MEPs. Two issues seem to have generated controversy: the inclusion of "video-sharing platforms" (VSPs) and the coordination and independence of national regulatory authorities (NRAs), including a stronger role for the European Regulators Group (ERGA).
