Rossvyazokhrankultura
Rossvyazokhrankultura (Россвязьохранкультура) was the short name for the Russian Federal Surveillance Service for Mass Communications, Communications and Cultural Heritage Protection (Russian: Федеральная служба по надзору в сфере массовых коммуникаций, связи и охраны культурного наследия), a state governing service entrusted with monitoring compliance in two unrelated areas - communications and mass media and preservation of tangible cultural heritage.
According to a decree issued by President Vladimir Putin on March 12, 2007, Rosokhrankultura (cultural heritage watchdog) was merged with Rossvyaznadzor, a service that surveilled Russian telecommunications (under jurisdiction of the Ministry of Information Technologies and Communications), into a new service subordinate to the Government of Russia directly, and was short-named Rossvyazokhrankultura since then.[1] On March 27 Boris Boyarskov was appointed chairman of the new service.[2] In March 2007 the authority — then a subdivision of the Culture Ministry of Russia called Russian Federal Surveillance Service for Compliance with the Legislation in Mass Media and Cultural Heritage Protection (Rosokhrankultura) — warned the Kommersant newspaper that it shouldn't mention National Bolshevik Party on its pages, as the party had been denied official registration.[3]
In May, 2008, the dual-headed service was split back into independent agencies, with the mass communication function subordinated to Ministry of communications and the heritage-keeping function to the Ministry of Culture.[4][5]
