Summary by the Danish Parliament (in Danish)
Lovforslaget handler om at etablere hjemmelsgrundlag for en dansk produktionsrabatordning, der skal fremme dansk kultur ved at yde tilskud til produktion af film- og serieproduktion i Danmark. Danmark er sidste land i EU til at indføre en produktionsrabatordning. Forslaget følger op på en politisk aftale om produktionsrabatordningen fra den 10. juni 2025, som bl.a. indeholder kriterier for at kunne modtage støtte, herunder støtteprocent, målgruppe, minimumskrav for støtteberettigede omkostninger, loft for tildeling af støtte, udvælgelse, finansiering, distribution og administration. Produktionsrabatordningen vil være en ny ordning, og derfor foreslås det, at lovforslaget indeholder en række bemyndigelseshjemler til at fastsætte regler i senere bekendtgørelser.
