National Council pleased with SRG Board's partial waiver

 The National Council's Telecommunications Commission (KVF) welcomes the fact that the SRG Chairman has waived his fee increase for the time being and that the other members of the Board of Directors will no longer receive attendance fees. Speaking to the KVF on Tuesday, SRG Chairman of the Board of Directors Jean-Bernard Münch confirmed that he would waive the increase in his fee from CHF 133,000 to CHF 180,000. The members of the Board of Directors will now receive CHF 40,000 instead of CHF 12,000, in return for which they will at least receive the attendance fee with immediate effect (see
). According to SDA, KVF President Franz Brun told the media that the SRG Central Council's decision to massively increase fees at the end of September had stirred up a lot of dust. The KVF therefore welcomes Monday's decisions. However, it had strongly criticized the unfortunate and in part non-transparent communication on the part of the SRG.
