Biel plans to make bilingual advertising compulsory
In the future, advertising in the city of Biel will be required to be bilingual. This is what the City Council is proposing. The voters will have the final say.
They are expected to decide on the corresponding revision of the advertising regulations in May 2020, as the municipal council announced on Wednesday. With the new provision, it wants to ensure "that the bilingualism practised in the city of Biel/Bienne is also respected in the area of advertising".
The completely revised complaints regulations bring further innovations. The draft will now first go to the cantonal preliminary review, after which it will be made public. (red/SDA)
