document, marking 30 years since the organization was founded comes ahead of the new political cycle for the European Commission with a new set of commissioners appointed.</p><p>It calls for a “Robust Media Policy” that delivers an industrial vision that is both ambitious and joined up. The ACT also wants a competition framework that allows the 28 broadcasters it represents to compete.</p><p>Guillaume de Posch, ACT President, said: “I am delighted that after 30 years ACT continues to lead the way on media policy. This forward-looking Blueprint will set the tone for the next five years. Europe has a big challenge, and many opportunities, ahead. The principles set out in the Blueprint are there to guide European decision-makers to a successful, vibrant and diverse media ecosystem. ACT and its membership looks forward to engage on these critical topics”.</p><p>There’s a call for “reliable rights and commercial freedoms” and for more to be done to tackle piracy and protect content.</p><div class="sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled"><div class="robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing"><div class="sd-content"><ul><li class="share-facebook"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-facebook-180181" class="share-facebook sd-button share-icon no-text" href="https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2019/11/18/commercial-tv-launches-blueprint-for-europe/?share=facebook" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Facebook" ><span></span><span class="sharing-screen-reader-text">Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)</span></a></li><li class="share-twitter"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-twitter-180181" class="share-twitter sd-button share-icon no-text" href="https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2019/11/18/commercial-tv-launches-blueprint-for-europe/?share=twitter" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Twitter" ><span></span><span class="sharing-screen-reader-text">Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)</span></a></li><li class="share-linkedin"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-linkedin-180181" class="share-linkedin sd-button share-icon no-text" href="https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2019/11/18/commercial-tv-launches-blueprint-for-europe/?share=linkedin" target="_blank" title="Click to share on LinkedIn" ><span></span><span class="sharing-screen-reader-text">Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)</span></a></li><li class="share-jetpack-whatsapp"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="" class="share-jetpack-whatsapp sd-button share-icon no-text" href="https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2019/11/18/commercial-tv-launches-blueprint-for-europe/?share=jetpack-whatsapp" target="_blank" title="Click to share on WhatsApp" ><span></span><span class="sharing-screen-reader-text">Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)</span></a></li><li class="share-end"></li></ul></div></div></div><div id='jp-relatedposts' class='jp-relatedposts' ><h3 class="jp-relatedposts-headline"><em>Related</em></h3></div></div><footer class="entry-footer"><p class="entry-meta"><span class="entry-categories">Filed Under: <a href="https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/category/newsline/" rel="category tag">Newsline</a></span> <span class="entry-tags">Tagged With: <a href="https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/tag/act/" rel="tag">ACT</a></span> Edited: <time class="entry-modified-time" itemprop="dateModified" datetime="2019-11-18T10:19:33+00:00">18 November 2019</time> <time class="entry-modified-time" itemprop="dateModified" datetime="2019-11-18T10:19:33+00:00">10:19</time> </br></p></footer></article><section class="author-box" itemprop="author" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><img alt='Avatar photo' src='https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/cropped-Julian-Grey-70x70.jpg' srcset='https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/cropped-Julian-Grey-140x140.jpg 2x' class='avatar avatar-70 photo' height='70' width='70' decoding='async'/><h4 class="author-box-title">About <span itemprop="name">Julian Clover</span></h4><div class="author-box-content" itemprop="description"><p>Julian Clover is a Media and Technology journalist based in Cambridge, UK.
