The E.E.C. Treaty applies to national broadcasting and
telecommunications legislation (Article 57(2)). The
Treaty applies to those working for broadcasting
organisations and guarantees freedom of movement
within the Community to these employees (Article 48).
Those working for broadcasting organisations in a self
employed capacity enjoy freedom of establishment
(Article 52). They also enjoy freedom to provide cross-
frontier services (Article 59). The E.E.C. Treaty also
applies to matters which directly affect the establishment
or functioning of the common market. In the case of
broadcasting, the transmission, dissemination or
reception of broadcasting signals from other Member
States may be the subject of directives for the approxima-
tion of relevant laws and practices (first paragraph of
Article 100). Articles 85 and 90 of the Treaty apply to
broadcasting organisations and prohibit them from
entering into agreements which restrict competition or
abuse a dominant position that may affect trade between
Member States.
The Court of Justice of the European Communities
ruled in Case 155/73,
Sacchi
24
that the transmission of
television signals, including advertising, comes within the
rules of the Treaty relating to services. The Court ruled in
Case 52/79,
Debauve
25
that transmission of such signals
by cable television comes likewise within the provisions of
the Treaty relating to services.
In the
Sacchi
case, the Court also ruled that trade in
films, sound recordings, apparatus and products used for
the transmission of television signals is subject to the rules
relating to free movement of goods. However, the Court
also ruled that the fact that an undertaking of a Member
State has a monopoly with regard to television advertising
is not in itself contrary to the principle of free movement
