Swedish Broadcasting Commission

The Swedish Broadcasting Authority (Swedish: Myndigheten för radio och tv) is a Swedish administrative authority organized under the Ministry of Culture. The Swedish Broadcasting Authority decide on permits, fees and registration for terrestrial television, community and commercial radio; and monitor radio and television programme services, on-demand services and teletext, to verify that the content of radio and television programmes adhere to broadcasting regulations. The Swedish Broadcasting Commission, a decision-making body within the authority, investigate if the content adheres to regulations, after complaints lodged by viewers and listeners, or on the initiative of the Swedish Broadcasting Authority. Additional tasks include verifying that cable companies and IPTV providers retransmit SVT, and that the broadcasting companies are licensed and managed in accordance with Swedish legislation.

The agency was established in 2010 after the Swedish Radio and TV Authority (Swedish: Radio och TV-verket) merged with the Swedish Broadcasting Commission (Swedish: Granskningsnämnden för radio och TV), in conjunction with an amendment to the Radio and Television Act (SFS 2010:696).

The Swedish Broadcasting Commission (Swedish: Granskningsnämnden för radio och TV, GRN) was a Swedish government agency formed in 1994 to regulate already broadcast radio and television in Sweden. Since 2010, the commission is part of the Swedish Broadcasting Authority.
