The Bremische Landesmedienanstalt , or Brema for short , is the regulatory and licensing authority of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen for private broadcasting. The institution was founded on February 15, 1989 in the form of an institution under public law with the right of self-administration. Due to the size of the state, the state authority consists of two bodies: the state broadcasting committee and a director. At its meeting on April 16, 2009, the State Broadcasting Committee elected Cornelia Holsten as director of Brema. Ms. Holsten is the first woman to head a state media authority in the Federal Republic of Germany. The Bremische Landesmedienanstalt is a member ofWorking Group of the State Media Authorities (ALM).
