  • Research on Use of the Irish Language on Radio
    Research on use of the Irish language on radio January 2018 Dr John Walsh, National University of Ireland, Galway Dr Rosemary Day, Mary Immaculate College, University of Limerick 1. Introduction The Irish language has had a role in broadcasting since the establishment of Ireland’s first radio station 2RN in 1926. The founders of the state imagined that radio would play a key role in the development of Irish identity in nation-building (Watson, 2003; Pine, 2002; Day, 2012). Following the consolidation of the existing Dublin and Cork stations in 1933, a national audience could hear programmes in Irish for the first time, due to the introduction of a high-powered transmitter in Athlone. Although a separate service was promised for the Gaeltacht in 1926, a distinct station did not materialise until 1972, with the establishment of Raidió na Gaeltachta (Day, 2012). Some Irish is broadcast on RTÉ’s other radio stations but as a full-time national broadcaster, RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta provides the majority of Irish language radio broadcasts in the country. Following the introduction of the Radio and Television Act of 1988, the pirate stations that had proliferated during the 1970s and 1980s were put off the air and new commercial broadcasters were licensed. Irish was granted only limited recognition in the schedules of these stations that came on air from 1989 onwards. As a result of a campaign by language activists in Dublin, Raidió na Life was established in 1993 as a community of interest service to serve Irish speakers in the capital (Ó Drisceoil, 2007).

  • A Public Service Broadcasting Fund for Independent Radio Stations a Scheme Proposed by the Independent Broadcasters of Ireland (
    A Public Service Broadcasting Fund for Independent Radio Stations A Scheme Proposed by the Independent Broadcasters of Ireland (IBI) January 2014 0 Summary: Over the past two years the Independent Broadcasters of Ireland (IBI) has campaigned for a fair and equitable system of funding for public service broadcasting (PSB) in Ireland. Our members are the main source of local and national news, sport and current affairs on radio for 70% of the population and because of the structural changes in the advertising market that have impacted on the funding of independent radio, these services are under threat. The introduction of the new Public Service Broadcasting Charge will result in additional revenue being collected for the purpose of funding PSB. In this paper, we outline a new scheme that proposes to utilise approximately half of the additional revenue collected in a new fund to support PSB on Independent stations. We propose that state owned broadcasters including RTÉ would also receive an increase in funding via the expected uplift. The Government is currently preparing amending legislation to the 2009 Broadcasting Act to allow for the introduction of the new charge. This legislation should address the issue of allocation of the fund and provide for this new scheme proposed by IBI. Introduction to the Independent Broadcasters of Ireland The Independent Broadcasters of Ireland (IBI) represents the 2 national, 4 regional, 1 multi-city and 27 local commercial radio stations throughout Ireland. The mission of the IBI is to promote a strong and vibrant radio sector which reflects the preferences and needs of the listening public.

D201 is the first major domestic distribution for 2020. As a result of IMRO’s increase in the frequency of royalty payments in a number of revenue streams, this distribution relates to the following royalties: . Domestic Radio and Television Broadcasts (October – December 2019) . Tours and Residencies (October – December 2019) . Digital Royalties (July – September 2019) . Live Music Survey (October – December 2019) . Background Music (July – September 2019) . Discos (July – September 2019) Basis of Payment Run Information regarding the basis of payment for the above distribution elements can be found in the IMRO Distribution Policies document which is available online at www.imro.ie. A brief synopsis is outlined below. Domestic Radio and Television (including advertising) All TV and Radio stations are paid out on a duration basis. The broadcasting revenue is shared amongst all performances logged and matched (i.e. linked to a work on our repertoire database). Submissions of music logs received too late for inclusion in the distribution are added to the next available broadcast distribution. Unidentified performances may be claimed by members by visiting our Online Unidentified Performance and Commercial Claim facilities, which are available by registering on the IMRO website at www.imro.ie . Please contact David Wilkinson at [email protected] for assistance with registering on the IMRO website. Sample Rates Stations are categorised either as full census, sampled or mixed. Where a station is sampled, the value paid for each play is correspondingly higher than it would be if the station were subject to a full census.
