July 18, 2013 07.59 Europe/London By Chris Dziadul
Needy people in Bulgaria are to receive free DTT receivers ahead of the country’s transition to digital broadcasting.
According to the Ministry of Transport, Information Technology and Communications (MTITC), this follows approval granted by the European Commission and signing of the first contracts with companies that will provide the receivers.
Initially, they will be distributed in four regions in the north of the country to some 124,000 poor Bulgarians, who will be able to exchange vouchers, available from August 1, for the receivers.
A second tender for the supply of receivers to just over 86,000 living in the south of Bulgaria has also just been announced, with distribution of receivers expected to start at the end of August.
