Sat 09 Sep 2008Over 30% of TV3 output to be home-produced
TV3's HOME-PRODUCED programming will rise to more than 30 per cent of its total output under the terms of a new service contract agreed by the channel and the Broadcasting Commission of Ireland (BCI).
The agreement extends TV3's licence by 10 years and commits the channel to bring indigenous programming from the 26 per cent it attained last year to more than 30 per cent. The original deal, signed on its launch in 1998, included a 25 per cent requirement.
