  • Submission Regional Television Local Content Investigation 2013
    Submission Regional Television Local Content Investigation 2013 August 2013 Tim Whetstone MP Parliamentary Secretary to the Deputy State Liberal Leader Member for Chaffey PO Box 959 Berri SA 5343 Introduction As a Member of the South Australian Parliament for the regional electorate of Chaffey, I would like to provide comment to the Regional Television Local Content Investigation 2013. Background In regional South Australia local television content has been an important asset for the community for a number of years. In Chaffey, an electorate based in the Riverland and Mallee in South Australia, television content has continually provided locals with news, current affairs, local event information, political analysis, sports coverage and special event programming. The majority of local content on television in the Riverland and Mallee is provided by WIN Television. ABC also provides Chaffey content on a limited basis via its news bulletins and recently hired a news video journalist in the region; an appointment which has been welcomed. On 18 February 2013, WIN Television network announced its decision to axe its local regional news services in the Riverland and South East. This decision was met with disappointment from the local community which has relied on the news bulletin as a vital source of information and engagement for more than 30 years. The decision clearly reflected a lack of consultation with local communities prior to ending Chaffey’s sole local news service. Not only did the region lose the local news service but this decision also resulted in fewer job opportunities for young and aspiring journalists in regional South Australia.

ETSA Utilities’ electricity distribution network was affected by the heatwave, with significant impacts on customers. As a result, the Minister for Energy referred an Inquiry to the Commission under Part 7 of the Essential Services Commission Act 2002. The Inquiry asked the Commission to investigate the reliability and customer service performance of ETSA Utilities during the heatwave.
