Resumen de European Commission: : Aid to finance digitisation and extension of terrestrial television in Spain incompatible with EU law
On 1 October 2014, the European Commission concluded that subsidies granted in the Spanish region of Castilla-La Mancha to fund the digitisation and extension of the terrestrial television network in remote areas were incompatible with EU state aid rules. The Commission also ordered the recovery of such aids worth EUR 46 million. This decision follows the conclusions already expressed in a decision of 19 June 2013, which referred to the national scheme to finance digital terrestrial television transition in Spain (see IRIS 2013-7/5).
