Confusion reigns on the Board of Directors of Radio Liechtenstein
The Board of Directors of Radio Liechtenstein is overstaffed. Instead of the usual seven members, it currently has nine.
The Board of Directors of Radio Liechtenstein is overstaffed. At the beginning of October, the State Court ruled that procedural errors had occurred in the dismissal of former Chairman of the Board of Directors Norbert Seeger and former Board member Alexander Batliner (see ). However, the State Court did not issue a clear instruction, but rather passed the ball to parliament. The state parliament then decided at the end of October to set up a commission to iron out the procedural errors.
In the meantime, however, the Council now has nine members instead of the usual seven - and to make matters worse, two presidents. These two, Seeger and the new Clemens Laternser, decided to convene a meeting at the same time on Tuesday, according to the SDA news agency. Laternser and the new board member Stefanie von Grünigen subsequently resigned. Seeger and Batliner then announced on Wednesday that they were prepared to step down from the Board of Directors. However, under one condition: The Patriotic Union parliamentary group and the Free List must publicly retract the accusations of breach of duty and thus rehabilitate the two.
