Since 2004 the production of television films in Austria has been supported through the Austrian Television Fund, in as far as it is not a matter of commissioned productions but of co-productions or in-house productions by independent television producers. After the first three years of this means of support, the Austrian Regulatory Authority for Broadcasting and Telecommunications (RTR-GmbH), which controls the fund in question, has commissioned an evaluation from the Hans Bredow Institute.
In order to also measure the effect of the Austrian Television Fund in quantitative terms, a written questionnaire was submitted to the Austrian producers of television programmes, with the intention of gauging the changes in television production from 2004 - 2006 in comparison to the period from 2001 - 2003.
