<br>
We are aware that IRN has hiked its charges for news and are trying to get a
meeting with them to discuss this.&nbsp; <br>
<br>
We are also working with the BBC to try to extend access to their news services
for the community radio sector, so we do urge you to at least approach your
local BBC with a view to exploring the possibility of getting a free news feed
from them, as some stations already have.<br>
<br>
Let us know how you get on as we will follow this up at the national strategic
level,<br>
<br>
Best wishes<br>
<br>
Jaqui<br clear=all>
