a.

for le­gis­la­tion and the ap­plic­a­tion of the law;

b.

in or­der to ac­quire an over­view of the mar­ket.

² Broad­casters of Swiss pro­gramme ser­vices must sub­mit the ne­ces­sary in­form­a­tion to OF­COM reg­u­larly.

³ OF­COM may make stat­ist­ic­al res­ults avail­able to the pub­lic.

⁴ The Fed­er­al Coun­cil reg­u­lates the de­tails; in par­tic­u­lar, it lays down the prin­ciples re­gard­ing data col­lec­tion, in­di­vidu­al sur­veys, the use of the col­lec­ted data and the pub­lic­a­tion of stat­ist­ic­al res­ults.
