The recent
Productivity Commission inquiry into Broadcasting in Australia has
acknowledged the important place of Indigenous production in the
national mediascape. The inquiry's draft report recommended changes to
the Broadcasting Services Act which lake into account some aspects of
the kind of cultural production going on now in the Indigenous media
sector across Australia. However, while there have been some significant
changes suggested, acknowledgement of the broader cultural importance
of the sector and its potential remain unaddressed. Acknowledgement of
the special place of Indigenous languages and cultures in the
Broadcasting Services Act, for example. remains elusive to national
policy-makers.
