ARLA/CLUSTER: Segundo o actual Primeiro-Ministro, a introdução do sistema DAB na Noruega é uma tragédia e um fiasco

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

 Norwegian MP: DAB Radio in Norway is a tragedy
*The DAB fiasco will become a major political issue*

Experience so far leaves no doubt that the closure of the FM network and
the introduction of DAB is a tragedy for the Norwegian people.
The Storting parliamentarian and media spokesperson for the Center Party,
Ã…slaug Sem-Jacobsen, writes this in response to Frp (Progress Party)
Thorleif Fluer Vikre, in a debate article published in several regional
newspapers in Norway. Before joining Stortinget Sem-Jacobsen was employed
by the public broadcaster NRK.

Vikre, vice president of Frp Vestfold and Telemark district, regards the
closing of FM networks as a big mistake, which is confirmed by the fact
that radio listening is down. Frp was the only party against national FM
switch-off. Vikre therefore believes it is positive that Sem-Jacobsen and
the Center Party now is critical about this digitization.

It is true that a broad majority voted for digitizing the radio medium in
connection with the processing of Report. 8 (2010-2011), including the
Center Party. Let me remind Vikre and Frp that when the Storting adopted
the introduction of DAB technology, it was under certain conditions. One of
these was that DAB should have equivalent coverage as the FM network before
FM was phased out. Furthermore, it was emphasized that a number of
political and social considerations had to be taken care of in connection
with the digitization. Freedom of expression, ownership, emergency
preparedness, access to information, population coverage, as well as
ensuring users access reasonable and good services, she writes in her reply
to Vikre.

She believes that the experience so far has shown that the closure of the
FM network and the introduction of DAB is a tragedy for the Norwegian
people. She points out that the Center Party 2016 made proposals in the
Storting to postpone the closure of FM. The proposal was subsequently
rejected, also by Frp.
