It's the deadline on Wednesday (21st) for any comments as part of the BBC Trust's "consultation" on plans for how it is going to allocate savings across the BBC.
The suggestion at the moment has BBC local radio, which includes Radio Merseyside, taking a significant percentage share of those savings.
Given the relatively tiny share that local radio actually takes of the BBCs overall budget, this seems extremely unfair (I am sure we can all think of other things that could go!)
Anyway, the link to the consultation is http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbctrust/consult/local_radio.shtml
Cllr Flo Clucas and I tabled a Council motion on this subject some time ago asking the Council to put the link to the consulation on the Liverpool City Council website. After a reminder (!) the link finally went on last week.
