The E.E.C. Treaty applies to national broadcasting and telecommunications legislation (Article 57(2)). The Treaty applies to those working for broadcasting organisations and guarantees freedom of movement within the Community to these employees (Article 48). Those working for broadcasting organisations in a self employed capacity enjoy freedom of establishment (Article 52). They also enjoy freedom to provide cross- frontier services (Article 59). The E.E.C. Treaty also applies to matters which directly affect the establishment or functioning of the common market. In the case of broadcasting, the transmission, dissemination or reception of broadcasting signals from other Member States may be the subject of directives for the approxima- tion of relevant laws and practices (first paragraph of Article 100). Articles 85 and 90 of the Treaty apply to broadcasting organisations and prohibit them from

entering into agreements which restrict competition or abuse a dominant position that may affect trade between Member States. The Court of Justice of the European Communities ruled in Case 155/73, Sacchi 24 that the transmission of television signals, including advertising, comes within the rules of the Treaty relating to services. The Court ruled in Case 52/79, Debauve 25 that transmission of such signals by cable television comes likewise within the provisions of the Treaty relating to services. In the Sacchi case, the Court also ruled that trade in films, sound recordings, apparatus and products used for the transmission of television signals is subject to the rules relating to free movement of goods. However, the Court also ruled that the fact that an undertaking of a Member State has a monopoly with regard to television advertising is not in itself contrary to the principle of free movement
