LINA’s submission to the Standing Committee on Regional Development, Infrastructure and Transport’s 2024 inquiry into local government sustainability
LINA’s submission outlined the role of local and independent news in contributing towards local government sustainability. LINA recommended that local government should be obligated to share notices of public information in local digital publications, and governments at all levels should be legislated to allocate a percentage of their advertising budget to locally produced media services, including both campaign and non-campaign advertising.
