WRITTEN QUESTION E-3738/02 by Ilda Figueiredo (GUE/NGL) to the Commission (19 December 2002) Subject: Redundancies at Euronews On 12 November 2002 the Portuguese newspaper Público reported, in an article entitled Journalists threatened with redundancy, that the sixteen Portuguese professionals responsible for the national version of the television channel Euronews could be made redundant. Given that Euronews is a pan-European channel which receives EU support: 1. Is the Commission aware of these developments at Euronews? Does any threat exist to the continuation of Portuguese-language broadcasting by the channel? 2. What measures have been taken or will be taken to ensure the continuation of the Portuguese-language version of Euronews? Answer given by Mr Prodi on behalf of the Commission (5 February 2003) The Commission would refer the Honourable Member to its answer to written P-3364/02 by Mr Ribeiro e Castro(1) (1) See page 54.
