Ongehoord Nederland director Peter Vlemmix said he expected a meeting with Dutch education minister Rianne Letschert to go positively as he arrived at the ministry in The Hague on Wednesday, 11 November. He was due to explain why he believes the broadcaster’s recognition should not be withdrawn.
The meeting concerned the minister’s proposal, announced in September, to withdraw ON!’s recognition. The broadcaster had recently submitted its response to that proposal. Vlemmix said ON! had made a strong case that there was no reason to withdraw its licence, and said he trusted the minister would hear its argument.
ON! was also due to meet ministry officials on 11 November to argue against losing its broadcasting licence. The meeting’s outcome was not reported in the account.
