The Latvian National Council for Electronic Media has decided to exclude 16 TV channels from the list of programs relayed in Latvia. This is stated in a message on the regulator’s website.
The National Council excludes from the list of TV channels: “REN TV Baltic”, “NTV Mir Baltic”, “Karusel International”, “NTV Serial” (“NTV Serial”), “NTV Stilj” (“NTV Style”), “NTV Pravo”, Kinomix, Our New Cinema, Native Cinema, Indian Cinema, Kinokomedy, Kinoserii, KVN TV, Kitchen TV, BOX TV and HD Life.
“This decision was made because the Council does not have information about the above-mentioned program distribution representatives in Latvia who could give consent on behalf of the program owners for distribution in Latvia, and the Council did not receive information from the owner about the extension of distribution in Latvia”, – the message says.
The decision will take effect at midnight on February 10.
