<div>This has been bubbling under for a year or so without any noticeable action. It might be something CMA could raise in context of MoU?</div>

</div>
<div>If reporters were only assigned to local papers this would still provide some scope to get them involved in radio too. We have weekly slot for our local newspaper reporters to discuss that week's stories for example.</div>
