ABC shuts Tasmanian unit

Written By Unknown on Selasa, 20 November 2012 | 19.55

ABC managing director Mark Scott has today announced the closure of the public broadcaster's Tasmanian production unit.

UP to 17 jobs will go from the ABC's Hobart office after the public broadcaster today announced it was closing the local production unit.

ABC managing director Mark Scott informed staff of the move today.

As a result of the closure, Auction Room and Collectors will not be recommissioned.

Mr Scott justified the cut by saying Tasmania did not have the scale needed for its own internal production unit.

Communications Minister Stephen Conroy today called on the ABC to reconsider its decision.

"This is an extremely disappointing decision by the ABC," Senator Conroy said.

"I call on the ABC board to ensure that the broadcaster upholds its clear obligations in relation to cultural diversity and local programming.

"Cutting its production facilities in Tasmania could result in a dramatic reduction in the telling of Tasmanian stories, something that diminishes the ABC and short-changes the people of Tasmania."
