The media sector welcomes the political agreement on the DMA proposal as a significant step towards curtailing the market dominance of gatekeeper platforms and restoring competition.

We applaud the institutions for their ambition and commitment to seeing the DMA through, especially within such a tight timeframe. The agreement reached by the co-legislators reflects the political vision required to preserve a diverse, vivid and innovative digital landscape.

We encourage the European Commission, in collaboration with national competition authorities, to support the long-term sustainability of media services that rely on gatekeepers to reach digital audiences. This will, in turn, foster the ability of European consumers and citizens to access services that support the pluralistic flow of information and creative diversity in Europe.

We rely on the European Commission to ensure that the obligations foreseen in the DMA are effectively enforced and abided.
