2 It may provide the pub­lic with in­form­a­tion on new tech­no­lo­gies, in par­tic­u­lar the tech­nic­al re­quire­ments and pos­sible ap­plic­a­tions, and work with third parties to do so.

3 The sub­sidies in terms of para­graphs 1 and 2 shall be paid for from the rev­en­ue from the li­cence fee (Art. 22) and, if this is not suf­fi­cient, from the rev­en­ue from the ra­dio and tele­vi­sion fee.

4 When de­term­in­ing the amount of the ra­dio and tele­vi­sion fee (Art. 70), the Fed­er­al Coun­cil shall de­term­ine the pro­por­tion which is avail­able for sub­sidies. This is shall amount to no more than one per cent of the total rev­en­ue from the ra­dio and tele­vi­sion fee.

5 The Fed­er­al Coun­cil de­term­ines who is en­titled to sup­port and the re­quire­ments for re­ceiv­ing sub­sidies.
