Schwyz wants overlapping TV broadcasting areas

 The canton of Schwyz wants a review of the TV broadcasting areas. Specifically, it is demanding two licenses due to the special circumstances: one for the inner and one for the outer part of the canton. In its statement to the Federal Office of Communications, the government writes that it must be possible for the TV coverage areas in the canton of Schwyz to continue to overlap. For the outer part of the canton this would be Tele Züri, for the inner part Tele Tell or Tele 1, the latter being the new station planned by LZ Medien. The government does not want to decide between these two applicants due to its "liberal media policy stance", as it writes further. It assumes that the Department of the Environment, Transport, Energy and Communications (DETEC) will take an overall view of media policy.
