JDA announces extended MCH COVID-19 transmission fee relief for eligible clients

JDA is delighted to announce that the media sector support package released by the Government to provide near term relief for media impacted by COVID-19 will be extended to provide additional funding to eligible JDA clients.

The announcement can be viewed here https://mch.govt.nz/media-sector-support-package/transmission-fee-waiver

JDA is working with the Ministry to assist our AM, FM, and Digital Terrestrial Television customers in accessing the transmission fee relief. We will be in touch to provide more detail on the process for receipt of funding of JDA transmission costs specifically, as we finalise the process.

In the first instance, we would encourage our clients to get in touch with the Ministry for Culture and Heritage at media.support@mch.govt.nz with any general enquiries.

Applications for this relief are open from 7 July and will close at 5pm on 17 July 2020.
