Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Media, Communications, Culture and Sport

General Scheme of the Broadcasting (Amendment) Bill: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Mr. Eddie Noonan:

Community media is very different from public service media and commercial media. In the community, we are very much on the ground working with people in collaboration. They are involved from pre-production to post-production. We will have a Traveller group over tomorrow in our community hub. We are just finishing a documentary on education. The reason they are coming over is to have the final say and editorial control on this documentary. Public service and commercial broadcasting cannot do that.
