Wirtualne Media reports that despite a notication from Multimedia Polska signalling the end of talks, they are in fact still continuing.
Furthermore, the Office for Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) has confirmed that the proceedings examining the proposed deal have not been ended as the two parties have returned to the negotiating table.
