Broadcasters participate in parliament’s MDDA hearings
Rensburg noted in the submission that a number of the NAB’s previous concerns had been addressed but that there were some remaining issues. For instance, broadcasters were concerned that the powers granted to the Minister by the Bill reduced the MDDA’s independence from government.
Broadcasters were also concerned that the mandate of the MDDA could, in some instances be more clearly defined.
“The MDDA’s priority should be rolling out support to deserving entities and projects and that the law should make this clear” said Rensburg.
