There is no independent national authority in Spain specialised in broadcasting matters.At the national level, there is an independent authority, the Comisión del Mercado de las Telecomunicaciones (Telecommunications Market Commission), which has some powers concerning the audiovisual sector. However, at the national level, the authority that has powers to enforce most of the provisions related to Spanish broadcasting law is the Secretaría de Estado de Telecomunicaciones. There are regulatory authorities in Catalonia (Consell de l'Audiovisual de Catalunya) and in Navarra (Consejo Audiovisual de Navarra). A consultative Council exist for the Community of Madrid (Consejo Audiovisual de la Comunidad de Madrid). |
