(h) Make it a condition of each television warrant granted in respect of a television station that services a region or part of a region and which is granted to a person (other than the Corporation) that the holder of the warrant make adequate provision for the broadcasting from that television station by an independent news company (acting under the authority of a television programme warrant) of a news programme covering national news, international news, and current affairs; and

(4) In pursuance of that policy, direct that you shall, in carrying out the direction contained in clause (3), note that I am prepared to give my permission, under section 70 (3) of the Broadcasting Act 1976, to the issue of the television warrants and the television programme warrant required to implement that policy.

———

To the Broadcasting Corporation of New Zealand

WHEREAS section 17 (3) (a) of the Broadcasting Act 1976 specifically empowers the Broadcasting Corporation of New Zealand to establish, install, erect, alter, reconstruct, operate, and maintain, among other things, micro-wave facilities: And whereas section 17 (3) (d) of the Broadcasting Act 1976 specifically empowers the Broadcasting Corporation of New Zealand to make provision for the use of its micro-wave facilities by private broadcasters: And whereas it is part of the general policy of the New Zealand Government in relation to broadcasting that regional private television be developed in New Zealand without delay: And whereas that policy requires that the holders of warrants in respect of private television stations in the 4 regions proposed be, or enter or be or become members of, a network of such holders of warrants, to broadcast, in each of the 4 regions, a news programme, covering national news, international news, and current affairs: And whereas such coverage, and, in particular, the broadcasting of the news programme, will require that the holders of warrants in respect of private television stations in the 4 regions form or join in forming, or enter or be or become members of, a network of such holders of warrants, or some other association or organisation of holders of such warrants formed for the purpose of making arrangements for the broadcasting, by 2 or more private television stations linked for the purpose, of programmes or advertisements: And whereas a network, being provision of a programme by broadcast on 2 or more television stations linked for the purpose, will require, both within regions and between regions, the use of micro-wave facilities or of satellite bearers or of other high capacity transmission systems:

NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to section 20 (1) of the Broadcasting Act 1976 (as enacted by section 4 (1) of the Broadcasting Amendment Act 1982), I, Ian John Shearer, the Minister of Broadcasting—

(1) Give you notice that it is part of the general policy of the New Zealand Government in relation to broadcasting—
(a) That regional private television be developed in New Zealand without delay; and
(b) That, in each of the 4 regions proposed, there should be effective coverage by private television stations; and
