Criminal Justice (Temporary Release of Prisoners) Bill 2001: Committee Stage. - Local Radio Licensing: Motion.

 

We have seen examples of what I am talking about not just in Tipperary, but in other cases. If a station is offering a good service, reflects what we thought local radio would be, is viable, has a certain voluntary input and has loyal listeners, one would think we, as legislators making policy, should be happy with it. I am not talking about the commission but us as legislators. That is surely the result that everyone wanted to achieve, so I still cannot understand why this is happening. In many ways the commission does not set about explaining its decisions; there is not that type of transparency.
