I appreciate that. Mr. Purcell has explained it very clearly. In its opening statement the community radio group made an interesting point about how younger people are listening to more community radio and the potential of young people who get a chance to have a show, for example, on community radio. How can we best nurture new and young broadcasting talent, particularly through this Bill?
