Proposals on community radio from Digital Britain report

Following from the government's Digital Britain report, there is a consultation on three proposals around community radio:
- a one-off five-year extension of community radio licences.
- to re-visit the rationale for the current restriction of fifty per cent funding from any one source.
- removing prohibition of licensing a community radio station if it would overlap with a local commercial service with a coverage area of 50,000 adults or less.

Runs to 25th August, http://www.culture.gov.uk/reference_library/consultations/6213.aspx.
