Commercial Radio Blackspots Program

The Commercial Radio Blackspots Program is an Australian Government initiative which will provide $5 million over three years to deliver new or improved commercial radio services to regional and remote communities where it has not been commercially viable for licensees to provide coverage. The Program will ensure that greater access to commercial radio services is provided to a large number of people located in regional and remote Australia.

Some 142 communities were identified as potential beneficiaries of the Program in the industry submission which formed the basis for the Government's 2001 election commitment to this Program.
