Complaint against RTVG adoption referred to Zurich government
The Federal Supreme Court has not accepted an appeal by two Zurich residents against the referendum on the amendment to the Radio and Television Act (RTVA).
The appeal will be referred to the Zurich cantonal government, which is responsible for this in the first instance. This means that the third cantonal government will have to deal with the vote on June 14. Appeals have also been lodged in the cantons of Basel-Land and Lucerne. The new Radio and Television Act was adopted with only 3174 more yes votes than no votes. This is one of the narrowest voting results at federal level. (SDA)
