The main function of RTSC is to allocate channels and frequency bands, to<br />
verify the compliance of broadcasts with the provisions of the law and to decide<br />
on the relevant sanctions in cases of violation. R TSC is entitled to make the<br />
decisions in many vital fields for today' s b roadeasting such as the regulation of<br />
advertising breaks, prevention of capital concentration of ownership and<br />
conducting public opinion surveys in order to collect the necessary data of<br />
broadcasting.<br />
The experience gained by the practices in the past years, the need to make a<br />
change in the law regulating the TV broadcasts arose and The Law on the<br />
Establishment Radio and TV Enterprises and Their Broadcasts No. 6112 was<br />
adopted on F ebruary 15th, 201 1 and cam e in to effect in March 20 ll.<br />
The most important changes that this law brings can be summarized up as<br />
the following 23 :<br />
The share of foreign capital in one private radio or television enterprise is<br />
increased from 25% to 50%.<br />
The advertising of over the counter medicines is allowed.<br />
The TV stations are allowed to broadcast 12 minutes of advertising at most<br />
for each one hour broadcast. This way the channels can give advertising<br />
breaks every 20 minutes can broadcast 12 of advertising<br />
total. This period of 12 minutes in an hour's broadcast can be used as<br />
wished. So channels, instead of broadcasting advertising every 20 min u tes<br />
as it was foreseen by the form er law, they can broadcast it whenever they<br />
like as long as it does not exceed the 15% of the daily broadcast.<br />
