[comradio-l] [cma-l] Community Radio Fund: award of grants for 2010/11 Round2

[Clive Glover]

Carol

The CRF Panel made clear about a year ago their priorities were

1	New applicants (i.e. who had not had a grant before)
2	Joint applications on behalf of two or more stations (e.g. sharing a fund-raiser)
3	Applications from stations that have had a grant before

I don't think how many paid staff they have (or do not have) is a factor.

regards,

Clive Glover
