Granier Conatel waited for rape legislation

Caracas, 28 - RBV.info .- In a program Hello, Citizen (Globovisión), from 1 August 2007, Marcel Granier, director of the 1BC Group, warned that RCTV, now 'International', would not last long in the country . This is because, since beating the concession granted by the state to pass open signal, hinted that more would not abide the rules on Venezuelan radio and television.

Granier told that in response to the decision of the Supreme Court (TSJ) (1 August 2007), acting in support of the Venezuelan Chamber of Subscription Television (Cavetesu) after she filed an amparo for the permanence of this channel despite his contempt for the law.

What the representative of the channel considered as an 'abuse of power disguised as the gift of giving life a few days to RCTV. "

Cavetesu President Mario Seijas, argued at the Supreme Court at that time by not being clear on the Law of Social Responsibility in Radio and Television (Spring) which is a national channel and what is not, could not get RCTV Internacional of its program schedule. In addition to suggesting creating a technical standard to define this point.

But on Saturday 23 January, two years and a little over four months after this defense for the cable package to 12:00 midnight, Venezuelan companies subscription television, in compliance with new regulations Spring Law that specifies what is a national channel, were forced to suspend its television programming this.

Article 3 of the Technical Standards on Audiovisual Production Services Audiovisual clear that National are National Audiovisual Production services those channels whose reception or transmission of images and sound occurring within the territory of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and is distributed only through network service provider subscription broadcasting enabled by the National Telecommunications Commission.

Unless the channel in their weekly program contains over 70% of programs, publicity or propaganda which together do not qualify as domestic production, which is clearly not the case of RCTV.

This channel went out in the country on cable shortly after it was granted cease to transmit on broadcast television (27 May 2007), although it did with the nickname of 'International', has always kept its local programming: Made directed by Venezuela and the Venezuelans.

That's why the National Telecommunications Commission (Conatel), institution responsible for schedule is subject in Brazil, concluded at the time that this channel could not evade the regulations on radio and television applied to their open signal pairs.

But the absence of clear rules in the law (Conatel should define what a national channel) RCTV Internacional remained for over two years without meeting the standards for the production of radio and television since 2004.

In July 2009 Conatel developed and submitted to public consultation the draft rule that would define what is a national channel.

The law was enacted on 21 December last, and since its publication in the Official Gazette, which was the next day were given to channels that broadcast their signal for 15 days subscription service to check whether national or not.

Those who did not were considered national default and forced to comply with the law. Including RCTV Internacional. That however was refused.

Minister of Public Works and Housing and Director of Conatel, Diosdado Cabello, from the national parliament, reported that this channel not only failed to pass the national chains, but so did the National Anthem, passed in its programming over two hours of novels and did not announce the types of programming, among other breaches of law.

By decision of the subscription television operators, the channels that did not submit its documentation to Conatel and kept in an irregular situation, were removed temporarily from the schedule until they handed the papers requested.

TV Chile, American Network, Ritmo Son and Momentum are among the channels that came out of the subscription television in Venezuela for not submitting their papers, but returned to broadcast its signal this week because they were classified as non-nationals.

RCTV International refuses to show their papers, and, as stated by the director of Conatel, Diosdado Cabello, pending submission and show your papers to clarify whether they are national or international non-re-transmit.

Without much success, RCTV was a change in Venezuelan telenovelas programming by foreign productions, which did not vary at all its national channel condition, a few days before having to comply with regulations.

94% of the production of this network is national. This information is provided Conatel after making a study of the last 4 months of programming, publicity and advertising that conveys RCTV Internacional.

The entire broadcast programs corresponding to 65% of national production, plus one hundred percent that spread publicity and propaganda of national production, made in the country and directed exclusively to the Venezuelan people.

In the doorway of this channel you can see the programs they broadcast, which are made in Venezuela by Venezuelans and for Venezuelans.

The law that regulates radio and television providers in the country, in its Article 13 stipulates that the national audiovisual production are all programs, advertisements or propaganda in whose creation, management, production and postproduction can reveal the presence of capital Venezuelan Venezuelan locations, scripts Venezuelan Venezuelan authors, directors Venezuelan Venezuelan artistic staff, technical staff Venezuelan and Venezuelan cultural values.

The legislation will clarify some of this specification to not let the free interpretation.

A national cable channels, in addition to complying with the law on radio and television broadcast the national respect schedules programming for children and pass the national anthem at certain times-imposed regulations that may not interrupt any program to transmit advertisements may not do so before or after it.
