At two readings in one session and without debate, the National Assembly approved, definitively, the amendments to the Bulgarian Telegraph Agency Act (BTA). From now on the media content of the news agency will be obtainable free of charge, BTA reports.

By law, BTA’s information was mostly by paid subscription, but as the new amendments are enacted it will be free of charge. All people in Bulgaria and abroad will, from now on, have access to the BTA’s entire body of information of public interest and its products.To make this possible an additional transfer from the budget to the agency has to be approved.
