MTV, Duna TV and Magyar Rádió will each be obliged to set aside eight minutes and 42 seconds of air time for each of the political parties that are fielding national lists in the election campaign, the National Election Committee (NVB) decided yesterday.
The election law sets aside 470 minutes of state broadcast time, to be divided equally among the contending parties.
As a result, each of the 18 parties will have a total of 26 minutes and seven seconds of air time, spread out evenly across the three state broadcasters.
