The judgements of the Court of Arbitration of 14 July 2004 and 13 July 2005 confirmed that the federal State and the Communities have to work together in order to manage certain areas of electronic communications, owing to the growing technological convergence between telecommunications and broadcasting. The scope of these policy areas as well as the implementation details for governing them still have to be settled under a cooperation agreement between the federal and regional authorities concerned.
By virtue of this cooperation agreement, the Institute will have to work together with its regulatory opposite numbers in the three Communities:
- the
Vlaamse Regulator voor de Media (Flemish Council for the Media), for the Flemish Community ;
- the
Conseil supérieur de l’audiovisuel (High Council for Broadcasting), for the French Community;
- the
Medienrat (Media Council ), for the German-speaking Community.
