Before the Broadcasting Tribunal

Decision No. 10/87

Com 6/86

In the matter of the Broadcasting Act 1976, and in the matter of a complaint by Peter Lorimer Frawley of Auckland.

WARRANT HOLDER—Broadcasting Corporation of New Zealand (Radio New Zealand).

CHAIRMAN: B. H. Slane.

MEMBER: Robert Boyd-Bell.

CO-OPTED MEMBERS: Brian W. Stephenson and G. J. Schmitt.

Dated the 31st day of March 1987.

DECISION

This complaint arose from the broadcast of an item in Midday Report on Radio New Zealand’s National Programme on Wednesday, 5 February 1986.

The Complaint:

Mr Peter L. Frawley lodged a formal complaint with the BCNZ on 6 March 1986.

Mr Frawley complained that the item in question dealt with workers being made redundant and comment was sought from only one economist, Mr Len Bayliss.

He said Mr Bayliss was recognised as a supporter of the economic policies of the current Minister of Finance and could be described as a “monetarist”.

Mr Frawley submitted that economics is not a value-free science and alleged Mr Bayliss essentially said the lay-offs were a good thing and part of the rationalisation process, which could not be considered impartial.
