The President of the CNTV reiterated that from 2016, "this subsidy for producers or future community channels will be a permanent competitive line that will be awarded within the Fund for the Promotion of Television Quality, as they are at present, the lines of fiction, non-fiction, telefilm and international co-production, among others," Oscar Reyes said.
