The list does not include authorities with competence in the telecommunication area, which may have some rule in the transmission activities (terrestrial transmission, cable, satellite).

A list of such authorities may be found on the Web site of the European Telecommunication Office - ETO (http://www.eto.dk/contacts/contacts.htm).
