    Office of Professor David Flint Chairman 27 October 2000 Hon. Paul Neville MP Chairman Standing Committee on Communications, Transport and the Arts RG.95 Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 [Dear Mr Neville] ABA Submission to the House Committee on Communications Government’s announcement of the inquiry into the radio industry, particularly the adequacy of radio services in regional and rural Australia, is very timely. The Australian Broadcasting Authority (ABA) has implemented many of the provisions of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992, including those relating to the planning and allocation of new services. Eight years later, it is opportune to consider the extent to which the deregulation of radio broadcasting has delivered improved services, and whether legislative provisions have adequately addressed community needs. The ABA welcomes the opportunity to provide the attached submission to the House Committee. The submission provides an overview of the effectiveness of the legislative provisions, in particular, those that are relevant to the Inquiry’s terms of reference. We would be happy to provide additional information on any particular aspect of the ABA’s submission should the House Committee so require. I note the House Committee may conduct public hearings in relation to matters covered by this inquiry, and I would be happy to attend if invited to do so. Please do let me know if we could be of further assistance in the meantime. Yours sincerely [David Flint] Submission by the Australian Broadcasting Authority to the House Committee on Communications Inquiry into the Radio Industry The changing regulatory environment Twenty years ago, a ‘typical’ regional Australian radio market contained, in addition to one or more ABC services, a single commercial radio station operating on the AM band.

Known as The Big Marn, he shot to fame as a rugby league player with Penrith and Canterbury during the 1970s and 1980s. Darryl went on to become equally well known as a commentator with the Radio Station 2GB, where he continues to work today.
