Broadcasting (Funding) Bill 2003: Committee Stage.

 

2:30 pm

Michael Finucane (Fine Gael)

I will be very brief. I propose the new subsection on the theme on which I had been talking a great deal, namely, the concept of community radio and television. I felt, on the basis of the Minister's reassurance, that good proposals from community radio and television would be considered. If those subparagraphs referring to "contemporary community culture" and "current dimensions of community cultural diversity" were included as part of the themes of the broadcasting funding scheme, it would strengthen the community radio and television concept.
