The Radio Fund was flawed from the outset. Over time it has cultivated an unhealthy dependency culture in community radio. The bi-annual ‘lottery’ for a slice of the fund is an undignified ‘gamble’ for the very existence of many services.</font></div><div class=""><font color="#333333" face="Arial" class="" style="font-size: 15px;"><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font color="#333333" face="Arial" class="" style="font-size: 15px;">2. </font><font face="ArialMT" class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 15px;">The average (mean) income for a community radio service is £55,000 (Ofcom Communications Market Report 2016); Under the old 50% rule, this would have permitted stations to raise no more than c£27k of that from on-air activities. Today, with the £15k allowance, stations are able to raise £35k from those same on-air activities without recourse to other off-air sources pop income. A 25% increase. This favours the bulk of community radio stations. You only have to look at the median average income for community stations, £32,500, to realise that for most stations the £15,000 represents nearly 50% of their income. So the allowance significantly reduces their dependency on grants and donations, etc. to balance the books.</span></font></div><div class=""><font face="ArialMT" class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 15px;"><br class=""></span></font></div><div class=""><font face="ArialMT" class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 15px;">3.

Whether stations make a profit or surplus is neither here nor there for most of them. The ‘answer’ to the copyright issues lies in collective negotiating on behalf of the sector between the representative body (CMA) and PPL/PRS. But you have to know how to negotiate. And if you are playing with PPL/PRS you better have some suits in you hand of cards.</span></font></div><div class=""><font face="ArialMT" class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 15px;"><br class=""></span></font></div><div class=""><font face="ArialMT" class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 15px;"><br class=""></span></font></div><div class=""><font face="ArialMT" class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 15px;">David</span></font></div><div class=""><font face="ArialMT" class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 15px;">The Radio People</span></font></div><div class="page" title="Page 3"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class=""><span class="" style="font-family: ArialMT; font-size: 15px;"> <br class=""></span></div></div></div></div><div class=""><font color="#333333" face="Arial" class="" style="font-size: 15px;"><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font color="#333333" face="Arial" class="" style="font-size: 15px;"><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font color="#333333" face="Open Sans, Arial, sans-serif" size="3" class=""><br class=""></font><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On 9 Dec 2016, at 14:54, Canalside's The Thread <<a href="mailto:office@thethread.org.uk" class="">office@thethread.org.uk</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div class="WordSection1" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;"><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Dear All</div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> </div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">In response if I may please to an e-mail I received from a gentlemen last week I would like to point something out that is very important.</div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> </div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Regardless how it may seem I am actually a very very positive person and lend 100% of my energy and support to our great project that is Community Radio.
