Bosnian DTT decision reversed
08.25 Europe/London, November 1, 2011 By Chris Dziadul

The transition to digital broadcasting in Bosnia & Herzegovina (B&H) has been dealt a blow by the country’s Office for Public Appeals.

According to Telecompaper, it has cancelled a DTT tender that was initially won by Croatia’s Ericsson Nikola Tesla following complaints by the local consortium Unis Telekom, one of the failed bidders.

Ericsson Nikola Tesla, Unis Telekom, Serbia’s Nera Beograd and Hungary’s Metalcom were all hoping to secure the right to provide infrastructure for B&H’s DTT and associated digital microwave services.

The move has been criticised by the country’s Ministry of Transport and Communications, which said B&H would now have problems in fulfilling its international commitments of completing the transition to digital broadcasting by June 2015.
