Children's Television Channel
There will be a Children's Television Channel up and running by Christmas as announced in yesterday's budget. This is a great achievement for the Australian Children's Television Foundation who have been lobbying for this for many years.
“For the past 50 years, Australian parents have trusted ABC Television to inform, educate and entertain their children." said ABC Managing Director, Mark Scott.
