No Licence for Manx Television Ltd 5 December 2003 The Communications Commission has rejected the sole application for a TV Station
Licence under the Broadcasting Act 1993 (of Tynwald) to run a local television
station on the Isle of Man. The applicant has failed to supply the Commission
with relevant supporting evidence for the project.
In September 2002, following a public invitation to apply published on 23 July
2002, the Commission had received a single application for a licence from Manx
Television Limited, a company formed for the purpose of the application.
Should any other applicant for a licence to provide a local television service
for the Island come forward in future, the Commission will consider the proposal
on its merits. This could include a further approach from the former applicant
or associated entities. More stories >>>
