Licence renewal for CJGX
|

Following Public Notice CRTC 1995-79 dated 12 May 1995 and Decision CRTC 95-669 dated 30 August 1995, the Commission renews the broadcasting licence for CJGX Yorkton, from 1 December 1995 to 31 August 2002, subject to the conditions in effect under the current licence, as well as to those conditions specified in the licence to be issued.

The Commission reaffirms the particular importance it attaches to the development of Canadian talent and is satisfied with the annual budgets and the initiatives proposed by the licensee in this respect.

In this regard, the Commission notes that, on 17 November 1995, it released Public Notice CRTC 1995-196 entitled "Contributions by Radio Stations to Canadian Talent Development - A New Approach". As a result of this public notice, licensees may apply for relief from the direct cost commitments for Canadian talent development considered as part of this licence renewal, and to amend their licence by adding a condition of licence requiring payments to third parties involved in Canadian talent development at the level identified for it in the Canadian Association of Broadcasters' "Distribution Guidelines For Canadian Talent Development", as set out in the public notice.

In Public Notice CRTC 1992-59 dated 1 September 1992 and entitled "Implementation of an Employment Equity Policy", the Commission announced that the employment equity practices of broadcasters would be subject to examination by the Commission. The Commission recognizes the licensee's involvement in various employment equity initiatives including its support of women and Aboriginal Peoples in broadcasting. Nevertheless, the Commission considers that the licensee could increase its efforts in relation to visible minorities and people with disabilities.
