Senate proposes Supreme Audit Office to audit Czech Television and Czech Radio finances

The Senate has once again proposed a constitutional amendment that would grant the Supreme Audit Office (NKÚ) the authority to audit the finances of Czech Television (ČT) and Czech Radio (ČRo).

The upper chamber of Parliament agreed on this on Wednesday with 48 of its 54 members present voting in favor. The senators from STAN ultimately did not propose postponing the debate on the amendment. The amendment will now be reviewed by the government and the Chamber of Deputies.
