Broadcasting Bill 2008 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages.
11:00 am
Eamon Ryan (Dublin South, Green Party)
I move amendment No. 1:
In page 12, lines 24 and 25, to delete all words from and including "for" in line 24 down to and including "viewer" in line 25 and substitute the following:
"in a non-linear manner where each user of the service".
This is a minor amendment to the definition of a broadcasting service contained in section 2. The amendment aims to made it clear that non-linear audio visual and audio services, for example, podcasting services, are excluded from the definition of broadcasting services, thus ensuring a consistency of approach as between non-linear audio visual and audio services.
