Catering entrepreneurs have just lately been deterred by the excessive licensing prices, and subsequently typically determined to not broadcast the European Championships on a big display screen outside.
A majority within the Home of Representatives (PVV, VVD, BBB, CDA D66 and SP) dominated this week that NOS and the Videma basis, which collects the license charges, should cease charging prices to entrepreneurs who need a big TV display screen. hold it up on a sq. or a market.
The Algemeen Dagblad reported that the NOS asks entrepreneurs greater than three euros in the event that they need to set up a big outside display screen. Meaning nearly 8,000 euros if 2,500 guests got here. Based on VVD member Arend Kisteman, that’s ‘loopy’. ‘The NOS is financed from taxpayers’ cash. So not directly the entrepreneur has already paid for these rights. The European Soccer Championship is meant for individuals to take pleasure in themselves. To not harm entrepreneurs.’
‘Complete length EK’
The brand new charges apply retroactively for the whole length of the European Championship, NOS now reviews. Entrepreneurs, corporations and establishments which have already bought an occasion license will obtain compensation. “The NOS believes it is vital that everybody can benefit from the Dutch nationwide staff,” says Gert-Jaap Hoekman, editor-in-chief at NOS Sport. ‘The European Championships carry individuals collectively, whether or not at house or on a big sq.. These changes present a serving to hand to catering entrepreneurs, and we hope that there’ll now be full squares through the Dutch matches.’
The truth that Videma supplies licenses has to do with the broadcasting rights of the soccer matches. These are within the arms of the NOS, which has made agreements about this with the European soccer affiliation UEFA, which organizes the European Championship. An occasion license is required to broadcast on giant screens on squares or in a tent, for instance.
