Broadcasting Legislation.
4:00 pm
John Perry (Sligo-Leitrim, Fine Gael)
Many local radio stations are being sold for extraordinary amounts of money. Given the proliferation of licences granted in Dublin, is there a possibility of allowing competition in a franchised area where only one licence operates? Does the Minister believe the independent broadcasting fund should be expanded to allow private broadcasters to invest more in public service programming?
