I move Greens amendment (3) on sheet 5086:

(3)    Schedule 2, item 7, page 54 (line 31) to page 55 (line 2), omit subsection 61CE(6), substitute:

        (6)    For the purposes of this Subdivision, a commercial radio broadcasting licensee meets the minimum service standards for designated local content programs during a particular week if, during that week, the amount of local content programs is at least:

             (a)    the local content program target amount; or

             (b)    if the average weekly amount of local content broadcast under the licence during the benchmark year is greater than the local content program target number—that amount.

        (7)    For the purposes of subsection (6), the local content program target amount is:

             (a)    4 ½ hours in every 24 hour period; or

             (b)    if the Minister, by legislative instrument, declares that a greater amount is the local content program target amount—the greater amount.

Question negatived.
