Wijziging van de Mediawet 2008 en de Tabakswet ter implementatie van de richtlijn Audiovisuele mediadiensten

This Dutch legislative procedure amends the Mediawet 2008 (Media Act) and the Tobacco Act (Tabakswet) to implement the EU Audiovisual Media Services Directive into national law. The directive sets common rules for television and on-demand video services across the EU, covering areas such as advertising, audience protection and the promotion of European works. The changes would primarily affect broadcasters, video-on-demand providers and advertisers operating in the Netherlands, as well as viewers who would gain protections under the revised rules. Based on the title alone, the tobacco-related amendments may also affect tobacco product promotion in audiovisual media.
