I move amendment No. 12:

In page 18, to delete line 22 and substitute the following:

“2018201920202021”.

I would like to make a brief comment on the issue of targets for broadcasting. As I mentioned already to Members, and I thank them for their support, the issue with broadcasting is that the current targets are not being met. The targets that we have put in this legislation are actually lower than the usual targets and the amendments that were sent around to Members yesterday proposed to take them out. We are asking for less.
