The
Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications suggests to postpone start of the
second package of a digital broadcasting to
2019
Ten TV channels of the second multiplex become available to all country
for four years later, than
was planned originally. About postponement of terms for the 2019th year of the
Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications hopes to agree with the government,
write "News" with reference to a source in the government of Russia.
The second multiplex included REN-TV, "Saviour", STS,
"House", TB3, "Sport Plus", "Star",
"World", TNT, "Muz TV". These are so-called optional national
channels, their set was defined at competitions of Roskomnadzor in 2012-2013. It
already covers about 60% of the population.
According to the federal target program "Development of TV and
Radio Broadcasting in the Russian Federation for 2009-2015", start of the
second package in scales of all country is planned for 2015. Now suggest to
postpone it for four years.
Participants of the second multiplex requested transfer of terms in the
Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications. According to the source in the
governments, the request they reasoned that the advertizing market in Russia collapses and
the companies will not be able annually to pay in the total amount of 1 billion
rubles for presence at the second multiplex.
The recipient of annual payment of Federal State Unitary Enterprise
Rossiyskaya televizionnaya i radioveshchatelnaya set (RTRS) – the national operator of a radio TV and
radio-transmitting network. Total
amount of payments depends on number of transmitters and their power. Will
reach current coverage at the expense of big cities where a small amount of
transmitters allows to provide with TV channels a large number of the
population. The territory is less occupied, the more transmitters should be installed for
coverage of the same number of people. After the end of construction annual
payments will make a little more than 1 billion rubles.
"The order of construction of a network of the second multiplex in
many respects is defined by economic feasibility for speakers. Therefore
updatings of the federal target program
considering interests of speakers are quite logical, – note in the press
service of RTRS. – Especially as it is not about transfer of terms of start:
stage-by-stage commissioning of transmitters of the second multiplex goes and will
continuously go. It is about the term of full completion of construction of a
network and achievement of the target indicators put in the FTP".
The choice of date 2019 is proved by that by this year returns of growth
of economy and the advertizing market expect, the newspaper notes.
