ABC reveals plans for $50m funding windfall
ABC CFO Melanie Kleyn
The ABC’s managing director Hugh Marks has revealed the national broadcaster’s plans for the extra $50m in funding it will receive over the next three years.
The funding injection is the result of a side-deal struck between the Greens and Labor in late November to pass the Australian content requirement for online streaming services bill.
Labor Senator Michelle Ananda-Rajah raised the topic during Senate estimates on Monday afternoon, asking Marks what the extra funding means for the ABC.
