On ownership and control
The Media Development and Diversity Agency (MDDA) welcomes the Ownership and Control discussion paper as published by the Authority on the 17th November 2009. Further, MDDA (the Agency) appreciates the democratic and participatory nature of policy-making in our country. This paper is published a few months after the Agency published a “Trends of ownership and control of media in South Africa”, 15 June 2009, which provides some helpful context in respect of broadcasting for this discussion paper.
The Media Development and Diversity Agency (MDDA) is a statutory development agency for promoting and ensuring media development and diversity.
