Community Television Licence Update
The Minister for Communications Malcolm Turnbull has today announced that community television stations will only be licensed until the end of 2015.
See coverage in The Australian and via the ABC.
The Community Broadcasting Association of Australia (CBAA) continues its support of community television. Time is necessary to support a shift to online – several years of preparation, simulcast and viewer adjustment would be required to give community television a chance to make this transition successfully.
The CBAA will liaise with the Australian Community Television Alliance as they determine their next steps. To stay up to date, see their website and Facebook Page.
