|
1. Following Public Notice CRTC 1998-10 dated 10 February 1998, the Commission approves the application by Fairchild Television Ltd., licensee of the ethnic regional discretionary specialty programming undertaking, to amend condition of licence no. 7 pertaining to the distribution of advertising material in order to increase the amount of advertising from the current 8 minutes to a maximum of 12 minutes per hour. The amended condition of licence now reads as follows:
|
7.(a) During each clock hour, the licensee shall broadcast not more than twelve minutes of commercial messages of which no more than six minutes shall be local commercial messages.
|
(b) In addition to the maximum of twelve minutes of commercial messages referred to in (a), the licensee may distribute during each clock hour, a maximum of thirty seconds of additional advertising material that consists of unpaid public service announcements.
|
(c) Where a program occupies time in two or more consecutive clock hours, the licensee may exceed the maximum number of minutes of advertising material allowed in those clock hours, if the average number of minutes of advertising material in the clock hours occupied by the program does not exceed the maximum number of minutes that would otherwise be allowed per clock hour.
|
(d) In addition to the twelve minutes of advertising material referred to in subsection 7(a), the licensee may broadcast partisan political advertising during an election period.
|
(e) For the purpose of this condition, advertising material does not include a promotion for a Canadian program to be broadcast by the licensee, notwithstanding that a sponsor is identified in the title of the program or is identified as a sponsor of that program, where the identification is limited to the name of the sponsor only and does not include a description or representation of the products or services or any attributes of the sponsor's products or services.
|
This decision is to be appended to the licence.
