Co-Regulation Measures in the EU Media Sector 

Published: Monday 30 January 2006    | Updated: Tuesday 27 June 2006   

This study, commissioned by DG Infsoc from the Hans Bredow Institute for Media Research in Hamburg, and the Institute of European Media Law in Saarbrücken, (Germany)  aims at providing a complete picture of co-regulatory measures taken to date in the media sector in all 25 EU Member States and in three non-EU-countries, as well as of the research already done in this field.

The study is currently available only in the form of a draft final report. It indicates areas in which regulatory measures mainly apply, their effects and their consistency with public interest objectives. The study also examines how best to ensure that the development of national co- and self-regulatory models does not disturb the functioning of the single market by re-fragmenting the markets.
The Hans Bredow Instituteexternal and the Institute of European Media Law external presented the Draft Final Report on 19 January 2006 in Brussels. The authors will consider all comments which have been submitted by the 5th of February 2006.
