Small One Seat Aircraft

A governing board where the sun does not shine

With Law 17/2006 all hoped that the new Governing Body to take the reins of RTVE. It was assumed that the new Council elected by a qualified majority in Congress, with the new powers established by law, give full management authority of RTVE an air of efficiency and effectiveness required by all public companies to consolidate a transparent and vocation public service. Nothing is further from the truth.

We still have a highly politicized Council, but not without ideas and what is worse without the ambition of consolidating a state public company that generates strong communication and audiovisual goods quality issues to serve the public.

Worse yet is that among the 12 directors have two major trade unions in this country, CCOO and UGT, and a third of the United Left unchecked not have one iota of official positions of the Council and the Department of Corporation. Have not led to independence and courage progressive proposals to revive a public broadcasting very corseted that barely differ from commercial. Have been held hostage by a Board of Directors inoperative, that when trouble looks the other way and that former President, Mr Luis Fernández, has been fooled. This President has led RTVE door out to a success course facing the inside has been confirmed as a dark age of outsourcing of production, placing cronies in positions of leadership, mismanagement and failure of planning. The Governing Council has much responsibility in all this as the President and the Department of enterprise, perhaps more since the parliament was awarded the role of preventing that to happen.

At present they are still waiting. In a situation of strong labor mobilization in the absence of work, with the funding model the edge of the precipice, with a human resources department that generates conflict, the Council remains silent and when something is proposed to align with the thesis of an address bewildered and overwhelmed by events. This is a Council that decides, not imposing their views, it makes no sense.

Workers, and more with two union representatives on the board, they will not forgive what is happening and so far are the majority in the company unions, CCOO and UGT, may move to stop being one if not makes a profound reflection on what are the policies and strategies that demand for these directors and applied.

have the opportunity of taking this company at a crossroads that leads her to be a pole issuer and they witness a robbery of the citizens of Spain of its public service broadcasting. RTVE

How To Get Rid Of Plastic Smell On Shower Curtain

Mobilisation Committee responsible

workers have done an exercise in accountability. The demonstrations called, and which have culminated last March 3 a successful 24-hour strike, involving a demonstration against the status quo in public broadcasting. Workers with concentrations at the gates of the Goya Awards, the Teatro Monumental, through mass meetings and rallies, with strikes, sit-ins, mass demonstrations and a strike supported by 95% of staff have said enough!

The outsourcing of work to deliver it to the producers of mainly from TVE managers, as part of the template is on its hands, along with the deterioration of labor relations and lurches RTVE model workers have been sensitized to require a shift in policy direction of companies that make medium and long term viable jobs available.

workers, despite having blocked an agreement by management, despite having not yet negotiated the wage increase in 2009, have chosen to relegate their work to defend just claims own internal production of programs. This commitment to production is which guarantees the jobs in the future, ensuring public broadcasting service guarantees and the necessary counterbalance in the overview of the English media. TVE to be relegated to a mere transmitter would post, not just the loss of many jobs, but private sector delivery of public service broadcasting.

temptations seemed to privatization of public services in this country had gone to the government of José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, but with successive upgrades, through enactment of laws, has opened the back door where he could reach RTVE deliver all that produce third.

information, opinion, education, culture and cohesion of the people is articulated through its media and mainly through television. Decanted means politically and sole purpose of economic benefit, pose to the citizens of this country a break with the social policies introduced in Europe. Should consider whether the mechanisms of social protection should not include measures in the field of communication where every day is the most defenseless citizens.
