The Dutch Raad voor de Rechtspraak, the organisation of courts, is planning to launch a new digital channel bringing live coverage of court proceedings. The aim of the court TV channel is to improve understanding of the Dutch court system among citizens.

The Bouquet Allemand, the German channel package for French viewers, has added three RTL channels. The bouquet is available on the IPTV platforms of FR, Bouygues Télécom and Free for €6.99 a month.
