Decision

Ottawa, 1 March 1988
Decision CRTC 88-132
Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
Goose Bay, Newfoundland - 871699500
Following a Public Hearing in St. John's on 16 September 1987, the Commission renews the broadcasting licence for CFLA-TV Goose Bay from 1 September 1988 to 31 August 1993, subject to the conditions specified in the appendix to this decision and in the licence to be issued.
CFLA-TV Goose Bay for the most part rebroadcasts programming originating from CBNT St. John's. The Commission notes that CFLA-TV broadcasts 3 hours and 20 minutes of locally-produced programming per week, consisting of a ten minute insert during the daily news and public affairs show, "Here and Now", originating from CBNT St. John's, and a 30-minute news and general interest program entitled "Coffee Break", broadcast on weekday mornings.
In Decision CRTC 88-131, of today's date, the Commission has renewed the licences of CBNT St. John's and CBYT Corner Brook.
