THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE
No. 43

There is no basis for an inquiry by the Tribunal into any possibility of financial transactions between Television One, its staff, and the brewery.

The problem of placing of advertising signs in major events is one which plagues television in many parts of the world, but it does not appear to fall within the jurisdiction of the Tribunal.

The complaint is based on a breach of the rules made by the Corporation banning the brand advertising of liquor.

The definition contained in the rules and in the Broadcasting Act 1976 is as follows:

“Advertising programme means a programme or part of a programme intended to promote the interest of any person, or to promote any product or service for the commercial advantage of any person, and for which, in either case, payment is made, whether in money, or otherwise.”

The Tribunal does not consider the sign constituted part of a programme. Its display was incidental to the visual reporting of the rowing races.

Furthermore it will be seen that the definition requires there to be a payment in money or otherwise for the programme. Other than a suspicion on the part of the complainant there is no information to suggest (and it is denied by the Corporation) that the Corporation was paid for this advertisement.

The Tribunal appears therefore to have no jurisdiction to deal with the complaint.

The proviso to section 67 (1) (b) reads as follows:

“Provided that the Tribunal may, if it considers that in all the circumstances of the complaint it should not be determined by the Tribunal, decline to determine it.”

In the circumstances, the complaint will not be determined by the Tribunal.

Dated the 1st day of May 1979.

For the Tribunal:

B. H. SLANE, Chairman.
