Consultation kicks off digital radio debate

Friday, 10 June 2011 09:56

Comments are being invited on proposals for regulating the content and strategy for digital radio in the Isle of Man.

The ideas form part of a strategic review being carried out by the Communications Commission, with the aim of bringing the regulation of networks and services up to date.

The Island doesn't have a digital radio strategy at present, and director of the commission Dr Carmel McLaughlin says it's all about kicking off the debate (listent to audio file below):

The consultation material can be viewed at iomcc.im and the closing date for submissions is July 22.
