"Concerning indirect public funding, the only source provided in Denmark is free access to the public broadcast media during election campaigns. The guidelines of the "Danish Radio and Television" (a national public service station) aim at ensuring that all registered political parties are given equal access to pre-election programmes on radio and television. All parties (no matter how small) are given equal time free of charge to present their manifestos etc. to the public."
