Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The State aid which the Federal Republic of Germany is planning to implement for the introduction of digital terrestrial television in North Rhine-Westphalia to commercial broadcasters on the DVB-T platform based on the directive on the financial support for DVB-T (Richtlinie der Landesanstalt für Medien Nordrhein-Westfalen über die Gewährung von Zuwendungen zur Förderung von digitalem terrestrischem Fernsehen als Maßnahme und Projekt für neuartige Rundfunksübertragungstechniken gem. § 88 Abs. 3 S. 5 und 6 LMG NRW) of 19 November 2004, notified to the Commission by letter of 13 January 2005 is incompatible with the common market.

The aid may accordingly not be implemented.
