Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
Community Broadcasting: Discussion
12:05 pm
Ms. Sally Galiana:
I turn to the potentials. Funding community radio is a means to fund a range of important community development functions. Each community radio station could, if properly resourced, employ five to six staff to support the hundreds of local volunteers who will, in turn, offer a widening array of media services to the community. This can assist the cultural, sporting, charitable and developmental life of each community.
