It was announced by REM that this is a more extensive meeting where, among other things, actions and statements ny broadcasters (such as TV Informer and Kurir) are discussed in connection with the violation of media regulations.

At the beginning of the session, the representative of TV Kurir referred to the alleged procedural failures, claiming that REM broke certain deadlines, that is, that it did not comply with any deadline. REM said they should turn to the Administrative Court and that the court will decide whether REM acted according to the law.

The representative of TV Kurir also said that it is not enough to complain about one show, that is, that the continuity of the behavior, if any, should be determined.

When a member of REM commented that the media scene was polluted, the representative of TV Kurir asked, "and who is responsible for that", alluding to REM as a regulatory body, to which the REM member replied, "well by you, the broadcasters of the media programs, above all".
