Yes so 1% for each

Hello Michael
 
Indeed, £35 million would be a fantastic amount to get. We will be banging on the door if it does come off.
 
I'm sure everyone is aware that the Community Radio sector and the Community Media sector are not the only ones talking about this 1% top slicing. The Arts, Channel 4, smaller commercial stations and local news providers are all trying to make a similar claim on this 'mythical' money. 
 
So, IF it was agreed that 1% was to be made available (and I personally doubt this very much) then we would be in a long list of potential beneficiaries and would certainly not be looking at £35 million!
 
I believe the statement put out by the CMA explains the stand we should take and now is the time to source other sustainable funding as a sector. Any ideas about how we can stand united and achieve this?

Hi Dave,
 
You've got to be realistic - 1% = £35million.
That'll go a long way to improving community media finances.
Mind you, if nobody ask for anything, we'll get nothing!
 
Regards,
Michael
