Media, NGO representatives and actors responsible for the delayed establishment of an Independent Media Commission (IMC) gathered at ATRC on March 6 to clarify the reasons for this delay.  

Bob Gillete, the Temporary Media Commissioner in Kosovo, explained that certain recent developments in Kosovo's political scene obstructed the process of establishing this commission, such as the death of President Rugova and the appointment of new Prime Minister Agim Çeku.

Assembly members of the ad-hoc group for IMC: Fehmi Mujota, Mahir Jagxhilar and Gjergj Dedaj stressed the need to speed up the process of establishing the IMC because of its great importance. 

This commission should not be influenced by political parties. An independent media is a great value for a democratic society in Kosovo, the ad-hoc group members added.  

Fehmi Mujota, Mahir Jagxhilar and Gjergj Dedaj stressed the need to speed up the process of establishing the IMC because of its great importance.
