Peter Dinges, President of EFADs said: “By opposing and reducing the scope of the country of origin principle, the Legal Affairs committee showed its support for territorial exclusivity and remains faithful to its long-standing position in favour of a culturally diverse audiovisual sector and to EU citizens’ access to European culture. We therefore warmly thank the Legal Affairs committee to support such an objective and we strongly encourage all Members of the European Parliament and all Member States to support its position.”
