Seimas rejects proposal to limit LRT director general’s terms of office

Terms of office of the director general of public broadcaster LRT (Lithuanian Radio and Television) will not be limited as the proposal put forward by the Lithuanian Farmers and Greens party (LVŽS) was turned down.

On Thursday, parliament rejected amendments to the Law on the National Radio and Television proposed by the LVŽS that sought to limit LRT director general’s terms of office to two terms.
