Law and self-regulation – deepening cooperation

The acceptance of self-regulation by law is already well on its way. As a further step, the ÖRT will offer a special prize for the best scientific student dissertation in the field of law and self-regulation, thereby encouraging future lawyers to become more familiar with this field.

It is a great success that the GVH’s Notice on Fines and the legislation on advertising refer to self-regulation. And the new European Media Law (AVMS) specifically encourages Member States to adopt self-regulatory practices.
