Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications

25 Years of Independent Broadcasting: Independent Broadcasters of Ireland

1:30 pm

Mr. John Purcell:

I would say that the vast majority of local stations would do so and many of the regional and national stations would look on it positively. The issue that arises is that if we apply for funding, we guarantee levels of service. In other words, our members would be prepared to access funding and then give a commitment to continue to cover local authority meetings, local sports events, local issues, etc., in return.
