The Portfolio Committee on Arts and Culture in Parliament has welcomed the progressive and courageous announcement by the leadership team at the South African Broadcasting Corporation, to play 90% local music across its 18 radio stations.

Committee Chairperson, Xoliswa Tom says this bold decision will not only celebrate the richness and diversity of local talent, but will enhance the quality of lives of local artists.


She says the Committee has on numerous occasions called on broadcasters to increase the percentage of local content on their platforms.
