MEDIA — Support for the transnational distribution of European films and audiovisual works on video (VHS and DVD)
(2007/C 16/05)
Due to budget restrictions, the Commission has decided (on 31 October 2006) to cancel the round of applications (‘calls for proposals’) for automatic funding for video distribution. This also means that the funds for reinvestment that would have been part of these calls will not be available either.
