Hon KRIS FAAFOI (Minister of Broadcasting, Communications and Digital Media): In the context in which they were given, yes. In particular, I stand by my statement that New Zealanders must have access to a strong and independent public media service for the decades to come. This will ensure that New Zealand audiences will have access to content which reflects the language and experiences of New Zealanders, including those currently underserved audiences. In Budget 2018, we increased public media funding by $15 million. In Budget 2019, we increased Radio New Zealand's (RNZ) baseline by a further $7.25 million. This was in direct contrast to the previous Government's nine years of funding freezing for public media.
