Skopje, 7 July 2025 – The Agency for Audio and Audiovisual Media Services has opened a public hearing on the Draft Guidelines Amending and Supplementing the Guidelines for Establishing the Deadline for Acting upon the Agency’s Decisions to Take Measures.
The amending and supplementing of the Guidelines stems from the amendments to the 2023 Law on Audio and Audiovisual Media Services and the amendments to the Law on Media of 2025.

Also proposed is to harmonize the duration of the deadlines for all entities.
