The previous Board of directors of SRTv was dissolved, the Constitutional Court ruling that a previous Parliament decision on SRTV’s Board is unconstitutional.
SRTv’s Board is made of 13 members, appointed through the majority vote of deputies and senators. The Board president is named by the Parliament on a 4-year period.
