The Authority auctioned a new commercial radio licence for Sydney, its first in a metropolitan market. The price paid, $155 million, exceeded just about everyon_e's expectations. The Authority registered codes of practice for Internet service providers and introduced a complaints scheme for prohibited Internet content. Despite dire predictions, the scheme has worked effectively and has attracted worldwide interest. In preparation for the introduction of digital television on 1 January 2001, the Authority has planned digital channels, released digital television channel plans and allocated test licences for digital terrestrial television broadcasting and datacasting. The Authority's ground-breaking use of single frequency networks in planning for digital has enabled channels to be set aside in all markets for datacasting, a new category of service. The Authority celebrated the twentieth year of the quality standards for children's television last year and this year released a research study, 20 Years of C, in conjunction with the Australian Film Finance Corporation and the Australian Children's Television Foundation. The study documented trends in ·the categories, styles and origins of children's television programs over the past 20 years, examined their scheduling and ratings and looked at the current production environment. In keeping with the undertaking in its new corporate plan, the Authority is committed to carrying out its regulatory functions with the interests of the general public foremost in mind. The Authority is also mindful of the need to foster industry responsibility while ensuring broadcasting and online services comply with relevant laws, in working towards achieving its planned outcome: an accessible, diverse and responsible broadcasting industry. Commercial radio inquiry Intense media and public interest focused on the Authority's first major public hearing, into whether commercial radio station 2UE had breached the Broadcasting ServicesAct 1992 or the Commercial Radio Codes of Practice, as a result of broadcasts by its high profile presenters Mr Alan Jones and Mr John Laws. The hearing was part of what became a wider inquiry into commercial radio, popularly dubbed the 'cash-for­ comment' inquiry, as the terms of reference of the initial investigation were expanded to include 3AW Melbourne, 5DN Adelaide and 6PR Perth. At the conclusion of the investigations into the four stations (soon after the date of this report), the Authority found that there appears to ha;e been a systemic failure to ensure the effective operation of self-regulation in the commercial racj.io industry, particularly in relation to current affairs programs. Within a significant proportion of 7 Annual Report 1999-2000 "f6 At the release of the report of the ABA hearing into 2UE Sydney: the panel: Kerrie Henderson, Jan Robertson, Michael Gordon-Smith. current affairs programs, the codes are not operating to provide appropriate community safeguards, the Authority found. After the hearing into 2UE Sydney the Authority imposed two conditions on the licence of 2UE Sydney. The Authority now proposes to determine three program standards for all commercial radio licensees. The system of co-regulation introduced by Parliament in 1992 always envisaged that the Authority might have to closely administer practices in the industry. The standards the Authority is proposing to impose are for a limited period, until April 2003. In the period the proposed standards are intended to operate, the Authority expects the commercial radio industry to develop codes of practice relating to the preparation and broadcast of current affairs that will provide the same level of community safeguards as are contained in the proposed standards. The outcome desired by the Authority is that listeners have available mainly self-regulated commercial broadcasting services that provide, at a very high standard, fair and accurate coverage of matters of public interest. That was the wish of Parliament in 1992 and, with goodwill on all sides - by the broadcasters arid the regulator - it can be achieved. If it is, it will offer a fresh start for co-regulation with a model that will be an example to others. Codes of practice deal

We pay our respects to the Yugara and Turrbal people and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging. Page 3 PRESIDENT'S REPORT Hi everyone and welcome to our AGM. As you will have been aware there have been huge changes at the Station and I would like to just take a few moments to put things into perspective. We have lived through what is probably the fastest changing dynamic the world has ever seen and the momentum is growing. When I grew up all we had was radio and we listened faithfully to all the programmes as there was only one Station – the BBC in England and the ABC here. I worked at the BBC in the 50s and we had the huge tapes that I recognised when I came to 4RHP about 12 years ago. My first training on a computer was in the mid 70s and that was at one of the first companies to use computers. All very strange to us. The machines were big and bulky and the computer had a whole room to itself. We slowly got used to that and when I opened my own business in the early 80s we had home computers and can you believe it a mobile phone that was huge.

    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.

  • Music on PBS: a History of Music Programming at a Community Radio Station
    Music on PBS: A History of Music Programming at a Community Radio Station Rochelle Lade (BArts Monash, MArts RMIT) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2021 Abstract This historical case study explores the programs broadcast by Melbourne community radio station PBS from 1979 to 2019 and the way programming decisions were made. PBS has always been an unplaylisted, specialist music station. Decisions about what music is played are made by individual program announcers according to their own tastes, not through algorithms or by applying audience research, music sales rankings or other formal quantitative methods. These decisions are also shaped by the station’s status as a licenced community radio broadcaster. This licence category requires community access and participation in the station’s operations. Data was gathered from archives, in‐depth interviews and a quantitative analysis of programs broadcast over the four decades since PBS was founded in 1976. Based on a Bourdieusian approach to the field, a range of cultural intermediaries are identified. These are people who made and influenced programming decisions, including announcers, program managers, station managers, Board members and the programming committee. Being progressive requires change. This research has found an inherent tension between the station’s values of cooperative decision‐making and the broadcasting of progressive music. Knowledge in the fields of community radio and music is advanced by exploring how cultural intermediaries at PBS made decisions to realise eth station’s goals of community access and participation. ii Acknowledgements To my supervisors, Jock Given and Ellie Rennie, and in the early phase of this research Aneta Podkalicka, I am extremely grateful to have been given your knowledge, wisdom and support.
