NUNS: The Municipality of Sjenica should announce competitions for all types of media, and Vranje should reconsider its decision regarding the allocation of funds.
The Independent Association of Journalists of Serbia (NUNS) believes that the decision of the municipality of Sjenica to limit this year's competitions for co-financing media content exclusively to television broadcasters and media in the languages of national minorities constitutes discrimination against other media.
NUNS: Public competitions must not be used to finance privileged media.
The Independent Association of Journalists of Serbia (NUNS) expresses serious concern regarding the decision of the City of Novi Pazar to allocate the majority of funds this year in the competition for co-financing public interest in the field of public information to Radio Television Novi Pazar, thereby continuing the years-long practice of selective and unjustified distribution of funds to a single media outlet.
Res Publika: The distribution of funds for media projects in Kragujevac this year has been announced to the detriment of Kragujevac media.
The Public Interest demands that the City Administration for Social Activities of the city of Kragujevac immediately publish the scoring list along with the criteria and justification for the assessment of each individual project in the competition for co-financing media content of public interest.
UNS, ANEM, and Lokal Press: MIT to explain the inconsistencies in the operation of JIS and violations of the law in the area of project co-financing for media.
The Association of Journalists of Serbia (UNS), the Association of Independent Electronic Media (ANEM), and the Business Association Local Press (PU "Lokal pres") express their concern and dissatisfaction with the operations of the Unified Information System (JIS) for the implementation and monitoring of co-financing projects in the field of public information (JIS).
The Ministry of Information and Telecommunications is obligated to initiate misdemeanor proceedings against local governments that have not yet announced public competitions for the realization of public interest in the field of public information.
The Law on Public Information and Media strictly stipulates that all calls for project co-financing must be announced by March 1 of the calendar year.
Extend the deadline and address the deficiencies in the application process for the competition of the Ministry of Information and Telecommunications.
The Association of Independent Electronic Media (ANEM) calls on the Ministry of Information and Telecommunications to extend the deadline for submitting projects for the competition for project co-financing aimed at protecting and promoting the public interest in the media sector.
