The European Broadcasting Union expressed its concern regarding Parliament\u2019s proposal to abolish the licence fee in Romania: Removing stable funding from TVR and Radio Romania would seriously endanger public service media (PSM) in the country and expose it to political pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n

EBU also stated that contributions by citizens are not only the most stable sources of funding for PSM, but also the most widespread across Europe. EBU Director General Ingrid Deltenre said: \u201cWe appeal to the Romanian Parliament not to take such an irredeemable step which risks destroying the fabric of PSM in the country PSM funding in Romania is in urgent need of reform but that should be done in line with European standards and the EBU is already working with TVR on a peer to peer review to support its growth.\u201d<\/p>\n
