  • A Digital Agenda1
    SRJ 35.1 v1 26/3/02 2:15 PM Page 21 A DIGITAL AGENDA1 Jock Given Abstract This article discusses progress with the introduction of digital TV and radio in Australia and the implications for Australian public service broadcasters. It argues that digital technologies provide powerful tools for the ABC and the SBS to apply to their existing activities. However, realising this potential will be expensive. It also brings with it some threats to the independence of the organizations. The article concludes by suggesting that, even if Australia’s public service broadcasters did not already exist, many of their central characteristics would be invaluable features in some organizations with a central role in the emerging media and communications landscape. These characteristics include their particular institutional structures, their size, their primary emphasis on “content,” and the comprehensiveness or inclusiveness of their mandates. Introduction This paper is primarily about Australian public service broadcasting. Thinking about its future is sometimes confused by applying to it the frames derived elsewhere, where public service broadcasters are very different. Australian public service broadcasting comprises two broadcasting institutions, the ABC and the SBS, which both offer TV and radio services and whose primary responsibilities are to offer “comprehensive” and “multicultural” services respectively. This is significantly different from even those countries with whom compar- isons are most often drawn: the UK, where all free-to-air TV broad- casters have carried “public service responsibilities” (see for example Department of National Heritage 11–13) and the “niche” broadcaster Channel 4 does not provide radio services; New Zealand, where there are separate public corporations providing TV and radio services; and Canada, where there is a single, national public service broadcaster.

It outlines current ownership and control patterns in different sectors of the Australian media and communications industries. It also explores foreign ownership laws’ impact and origins, and assesses arguments for and against changes to them. On 21 March 2002, legislation was introduced into Australia’s federal Parliament which, among other things, would repeal the foreign ownership rules in the Broadcasting Services Act 1992.2 Although media has often been seen as perhaps the most sensitive of industries over which ‘outsiders’ might exercise control, this plan to liberalise foreign ownership restrictions came less than a year after the rejection of a proposal for foreign control of Australia’s largest developed energy resource on the North West Shelf, and a few months before the rejection of a proposal for higher foreign shareholding in QANTAS.

  • Submission to Telecommunications Inquiry
    SUBMISSION TO TELECOMMUNICATIONS INQUIRY PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION REVIEW OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS SPECIFIC COMPETITION REGULATION By e-mail - [email protected] MAY 2001 Introduction We understand that the Productivity Commission has been asked to consider, as part of its current inquiry into Telecommunications Specific Competition Regulation, the implications of current pay TV programming arrangements for the development of telecommunications competition in regional Australia. We also understand the Productivity Commission has been asked to consider whether any additional regulatory measures are needed to facilitate access to pay television programming. As requested by you, we set out below our views on these matters. Overview of Fox Sports Fox Sports is a 50:50 joint venture between News Limited and PBL Pay TV Pty Limited, a subsidiary of Publishing and Broadcasting Limited. Fox Sports’ business involves the purchase of subscription television rights to sports programming, the production of television coverage of various sporting events and the integration and compilation of sporting programs into channel form. Fox Sports licenses its FOX SPORTS and FOX SPORTS TWO channels to Foxtel and Austar and licenses an NRL specific channel NRL ON OPTUS to Optus Television. Fox Sports also provides its channels directly to various commercial premises. Pay TV and Regional Telecommunications Fox Sports does not agree with submissions made to the Besley Inquiry by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) calling for a special pay TV programming access regime to be introduced in Australia. The first and most obvious reason for this view is that regional Australia is not, as a whole, being deprived of sports programming.

  • Publishing and Broadcasting Limited
    Publishing and Broadcasting Limited Submission to the Review of Broadcasting Regulation by the Productivity Commission May 1999 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The value of free television Consumer benefits of free television should be preserved Free television has a unique and valued place in the lives of Australians. Australia’s system of free television, which has developed over the last 40 years, is founded on a commitment from government and broadcasters to quality, diversity, responsiveness to audience needs and importantly, to Australian programs. Australians have become accustomed to these high standards, and there is a public expectation that this service will continue. Broadcasting legislation to date has recognised the important value given to free television by consumers, by limiting the number of available licences so that broadcasters can deliver the types of services consumers demand, including high levels of Australian content. Free-to-air broadcasting faces serious challenges in the next decade. As it prepares for the expensive digital transition, it is also confronting a challenging and changing industry providing an expanded array of consumer services, such as pay television and on-line services, and proposed datacasting services. While these new services offer many benefits to those who have access to them, many Australians cannot afford new media. And most Australians would like to ensure that their free service is not compromised in any way. The Commission should, in PBL’s view, endorse those aspects of broadcasting regulation which preserve the current high quality, comprehensive, free television service with its benefits for Australian culture. In particular the policy which limits the number of licences to three in any licence area should be recognised as providing extraordinary public benefit, in terms of culture, quality and diversity.

  • Submission to the Australian Law Reform Commission National Classification Scheme Review Issues Paper
    CI 1223a ASTRA Subscription Television Australia Submission to the Australian Law Reform Commission National Classification Scheme Review Issues Paper 15 July 2011 Introduction The Australian Subscription Television and Radio Association (ASTRA) welcomes the opportunity to make a submission to the Australian Law Reform Commission National Classification Scheme Review Issues Paper. About ASTRA ASTRA is the peak industry body for subscription television in Australia. ASTRA was formed in September 1997 when industry associations representing subscription television and radio platforms, narrowcasters and program providers came together to represent the new era in competition and consumer choice. ASTRA’s membership includes the major subscription television operators, as well as channels that provide programming to these platforms. A list of members is attached at Annexure A. The subscription TV industry is the undisputed leader of digital broadcasting. A dynamic sector that is constantly evolving and growing, it is received nationally by 34% of Australians through their homes and many more through hotels, clubs and other entertainment and business venues. Overview of content regulation on subscription television in Australia ASTRA supports consistency in the assessment and classification of content to be delivered on any platform, in line with the National Classification Code and Guidelines for the Classification of Films and Computer Games („Classification Guidelines‟) established under the Classification Act 1995. All licensed television broadcasting services (including commercial and national broadcasters and subscription television services) are responsible for establishing and maintaining practices for classifying programs in a way that reflects community standards. Classification requirements are contained in the codes of practice developed for particular sections of the industry, and registered with the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), under section 123 of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 (BSA).
