On 4 August 2022, the State of Finland replied to the European Commission regarding the complaint against YLE pursued by Sanoma Media Finland Ltd. The reply is the fourth that Finland has so far submitted to the Commission in relation to the complaint.
The complaint pursued by Sanoma in the spring of 2021 particularly concerns YLE’s video-on-demand services and digital learning materials. Currently, YLE offers video-on-demand services in the Yle Areena online streaming platform. In the complainant’s view, these services do not comply with EU rules on state aid.
