Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications

Community Broadcasting: Discussion

12:05 pm

Ms. Sally Galiana:

Community radio is about innovation. The lack of commercial pressures means that new programme formats are explored, new ways of making programmes are tried out, new ways of empowering people are tested and new spaces for experiments in radio drama, location broadcasting and documentaries are opened up. All this can only be sustained and expanded where community radio is properly resourced.
