The General Secretariat for Information and Communication will be responsible for overseeing a tender for new television licenses.

According to a decision signed by State Minister Nikos Pappas and published in the Government Gazette on Wednesday, the secretariat will form a committee that will be responsible for holding the tender, which will be for four license to broadcast a digital high-definition signal across Greece.
