Joint statement — Community Broadcasting Association of Australia and Disability Media Australia

The Community Broadcasting Association of Australia and Disability Media Australia have acknowledged Vision Australia Radio’s decision to cease AM broadcasting in Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth from 1 July 2026.

Vision Australia Radio has been in discussion with CBAA on this transition for some time. Both organisations recognise the decision as necessary to reduce operating costs and safeguard the long-term viability of the service — without any impact on Vision Australia Radio’s commitment to locally produced content relevant to the blind and low vision community and the wider disability community in each market.

VA Radio has operated DAB+ services in Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth for more than 16 years, with Darwin added more recently. The service is not being withdrawn — it continues on DAB+ and online streaming, including via the Community Radio Plus app. DAB+ delivers a markedly better listening experience than AM — clearer audio, more reliable reception, and no interference. What changes is the cost base.

Vision Australia Radio serves Australians who are blind, have low vision, or have other print disabilities. For many listeners it is not a discretionary service — it is their primary means of accessing news, information, and community connection. The network reaches around 500,000 listeners a month, supported by dedicated volunteers and staff in each market.

Change like this is never easy — for staff, volunteers, and listeners who have been part of the AM service for years. But the move to a digital-only model means these essential services can continue. That is the right outcome.

Both organisations acknowledge that AM listeners will face disruption and welcome Vision Australia Radio’s commitment to supporting listeners through the transition, recognising that moving to a new way of listening will not be straightforward for everyone.
Accessible communication for all Australians with disability is central to DMA’s mission and an increasingly important part of what the community broadcasting sector delivers. Vision Australia Radio is one example of why that matters.

CEO of CBAA and DMA

The vibrancy of Australian democracy relies on the robust and open exchange of news, views and opinions.

This is under threat. 

If digital platforms fail to pay for the use of the news content from which they profit then journalism becomes unsustainable. It is also in the public interest that reliable, professionally created news and information remains accessible and visible on the digital platforms used by millions of Australians.

The government’s News Bargaining Incentive (NBI) draft legislation is a critical step toward securing the future of Australian news. By prioritising commercial deals this legislation protects our democratic way of life.

It has been more than two years since Meta walked away from previous deals and almost 18 months since the government announced the NBI. 

While Google has been positive about doing deals, others need to come to the table, and all platforms need to step up.

We urge all parliamentarians to support safeguarding Australian journalism and the vital role it plays in our democracy, for all Australians.

The ABC has awarded its 2026 International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD) Storyteller Scholarship to Brendan Bernier and Julie Dickson.

Run in partnership with the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing, the scholarship supports emerging creators with disability, helping break down barriers and challenge community perceptions. It is open to contributors previously engaged through the ABC’s IDPwD Employment Fund.

ABC Director of News Justin Stevens said this year’s recipients will create content representing diverse communities that can face stigma.

“By producing quality content and letting their skills and talents shine, this year’s winners will help challenge perceptions and broaden understanding of disability in the community,” he said.

Senator the Hon Jenny McAllister, Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme, congratulated the recipients, highlighting the importance of authentic representation of disability in media.

“This scholarship helps break down longstanding barriers by providing practical experience, professional networks and confidence within the media industry. It’s a win-win for recipients and the audience.” Minister McAllister said.

Brendan Bernier, from Toowoomba, previously collaborated with ABC Radio North Queensland, co-presenting, producing interviews and contributing to an IDPwD showcase episode.

“I’ve been an avid radio listener for years and now that I’m conducting interviews myself, I’m enjoying experiencing that dynamic from the other side of the microphone,” he said.

“What I love most is hearing people’s stories from all kinds of backgrounds. Short-form interviews are a rewarding challenge, capturing the most interesting moments in a tight window of time. Creating content and listening to how a conversation unfolds continues to be a fascinating process.”

Julie Dickson, based in Melbourne, is an accomplished powerlifter who has won silver medals at the World Dwarf Games in both powerlifting and basketball. She has worked with ABC Lifestyle and ABC News Victoria on content highlighting the rise of women in powerlifting.

“There’s still a lot of stigma surrounding short stature, so recognising IDPwD helps raise awareness, educate the public, and challenge misconceptions,” she said.

“A highlight of my time working on my IDPwD project was having my para powerlifting competition documented. I’m very lucky to have such a special memory captured on camera and in writing that I can look back on in the years to come.”

The CBAA was saddened to hear of the recent passing of Les Heil AM, a long-serving contributor to, and later leader in, the commercial and community radio sectors who had a significant impact in the Australian radio industry as well as overseas. Most recently Les was the Chair of Sunshine Coast community broadcaster 104.9 Sunshine FM. Sunshine FM has supplied the following article to commemorate Les’ life and work.

Sunshine Coast community radio station, 104.9 Sunshine FM has lost a great friend, advocate and leader.  Chair, Les Heil AM, passed away on 26 April after a sudden illness.  Les was 91.

At the age of 17, Les followed his dream to become a radio announcer.  His first job was Announcer/Copywriter at 3SR Shepparton in 1952.  Four years later, he moved to 3BA Ballarat as an Announcer/Newsreader/Copywriter, then cracked the big smoke with a job at 3UZ Melbourne in 1958 where he moved into management and stayed for seven years.

Les did two tours of duty at 3KZ Melbourne, steering the station to the top of audience surveys, not once but twice.

When first appointed General Manager of 3KZ in 1965, Les was the youngest person to become GM of an Australian metropolitan radio station, an accomplishment even more noteworthy because of his programming background, rather than the traditional sales background.  He was General Manger for the next 13 years.

In 1979 Les returned to 3KZ as GM and then Managing Director.  A year later, he led 3KZ’s transition to become the first commercial FM radio station in Australia.  He remained at 3KZ/GOLD 104.3 for 11 years.

Les Heil believed, passionately, that you can never give back as much as you receive.  It was a guiding principle that he lived by and put into practice, every day.  Les contributed a great deal to the communities he lived in.  He was president of the Kiwanis Club of Melbourne, an organisation that mentors young Australians to help them strive to be the best they can be.  He served on numerous community service committees, harnessing impeccable stakeholder relationships to support those who needed a hand up.  Through the substantial audience reach of 3KZ/GOLD, Les was instrumental in fundraising efforts that collectively donated millions of dollars to the Children’s Wing of Melbourne’s Austin Hospital.

Les served on boards and in advisory roles that saw him involved in the acquisition and management of numerous radio stations in New South Wales, South Australia, Tasmania, and Queensland where he led the successful application for the first FM licence on the Gold Coast which was to become SEA-FM, launch pad for multiple SEA-branded music stations around Australia.  Les also led the migration of a Sunshine Coast AM station to FM In 1988, successfully launching the MIX and SEA brands in that market.

In the 1970s, he helped establish broadcasting services in developing countries, including the Solomon Islands.  Les also helped establish the first commercial radio station in New Zealand, Radio Hauraki.

In 2023, Les was enjoying retirement on the Sunshine Coast when he was persuaded to return to radio and chair community radio station, 104.9 Sunshine FM.  Under Les’ leadership, Sunshine FM maintained the highest audience reach of any station in the market, maximising the effectiveness of Sunshine FM’s support for more than 600 community organisations and events, each year.

Les is a former President and director of the Federation Of Australian Radio Broadcasters and was, for many years, a guest lecturer at the Australian Film, Television and Radio School.

In 1978, Les was recognised by peers as Radio Executive Of The Year.  In 1985, he was presented with commercial radio’s highest honour, the Radio Achievement Award and became only the eighth person in Australia to receive that honour.  In 1988, Les was made a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) in recognition of his service to Australian media and in 2002, Les was inducted into the Radio Broadcast Industry Hall Of Fame.

His ‘first’ broadcasting career spanned 50 years and Les maintained his connection to radio during his retirement.  Taking into account his leadership of 104.9 Sunshine FM, Les’ contribution to Australian radio spanned a staggering 74 years.

Les Heil AM is remembered as generous, humble, courageous, and a brilliant radio innovator. He is sadly missed.

International public service media organisations from Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and Japan met in Tokyo from 13 to 14 April 2026 for their annual DG8 meeting, hosted by NHK WORLD-JAPAN. 

Participants reaffirmed the crucial role of public service media at a time of increasing global uncertainty, rapid changes in the media landscape and rising financial and structural pressures. In light of these common challenges, the international broadcasters have agreed to collaborate even more closely at all levels, to exchange ideas, and to leverage synergies.

Trust and Media Freedom

As media freedom is being undermined and unverified information spreads, DG8 members agreed that accurate, impartial journalism and closer cooperation among international public broadcasters are essential to supporting democratic values and global stability. Members also noted the increasing threats faced by journalists worldwide and stressed the importance of safeguarding their safety to ensure continued access to reliable information.

Platforms

Members underlined the need to broaden audience reach as media consumption habits diversify, ensuring that public service media can continue to deliver essential, reliable information needed to navigate an ever more uncertain world. They also acknowledged evolving international discussions on digital platform frameworks, underlining the critical importance of access to, and prominence on, key global digital platforms to ensure that news and emergency coverage reach as many people as possible. Reflecting the views raised during the meeting, members recognised the need to continue and further deepen their discussions, including on the relationship between public service media and digital platforms.

Artificial Intelligence

Facing the rapid expansion of AI, members discussed how AI may contribute to spreading disinformation and rendering professional media invisible, even as AI systems already make extensive use of their content. At the same time, members also reiterated that, while such new technologies enable greater efficiency and innovation, their use must be guided by clear standards that secure transparency and trust.

Crisis Response

DG8 reaffirmed the vital role of international public broadcasters in providing accurate and timely information that protects public safety, particularly during large-scale disasters and conflicts in which local media or communications infrastructure may fail.

The meeting concluded with a renewed commitment to strengthening cooperation so that public service media — professional organisations trusted worldwide for fact-based reporting — can continue to operate sustainably even in challenging times.

The Presidency was handed over from NHK WORLD-JAPAN to the BBC World Service.

DG8（Director-Generals of Eight）TOKYO 2026 was attended by: ABC International (Australia), BBC World Service (United Kingdom), CBC/Radio-Canada (Canada), Deutsche Welle (Germany), France Médias Monde (France), NHK WORLD-JAPAN (Japan) and SWI swissinfo.ch (Switzerland). These organisations provide professional, impartial, and verified news and information worldwide via television, radio and digital platforms. Regrettably, the U.S. Agency for Global Media, which oversees U.S. international public service media networks, was not represented due to ongoing organisational circumstances.

Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) continues to dominate the ‘Audience That Matters’ (P25–54), securing its 38th consecutive survey win* and reinforcing its market-leadership in GfK Radio Survey 2, 2026.

The power of SCA’s combined networks, with SCA and ACE, has again delivered a clear market-leading 37.1% commercial share in the 25-54 ‘Audience That Matters.’* This lead is strengthened by a 17% average audience growth (25-54) across SCA’s networks**.

The strength of SCA’s duopoly was again on display, with key demographic wins, including:

• Triple M remaining the Number 1 network for Men 25–54 (22.3% share, up 1.3 points) – 26 consecutive surveys,
• The Hit Network securing the Number 1 position for Women 25–54 (21.3% share) – second consecutive survey.

Triple M has continued to deliver strong results nationally, with Brisbane (13.3% share) and Adelaide (12.2% share) retaining their positions as the Number 1 stations in market. Headlined by two number one Breakfast shows – Marto, Margaux & Dan(14.0%) and Roo, Ditts & Loz (13.9%) in Brisbane and Adelaide, respectively – this result reinforces Triple M’s connection with audiences.

Triple M’s The Rush Hour with Dobbo & Elliott has continued Triple M’s winning form as Brisbane’s Number 1 Drive show (13.7% share points), while The Rush Hour with JB & Billy have won their key demographic – Men 25-54 – for a seventh consecutive survey in Adelaide and a 22nd consecutive survey in Melbourne. With AFL and NRL results to be fully reflected in the next survey, Triple M has built the foundations needed for its biggest year yet.

SCA’s consistent live and local approach is reflected in share growth for Perth’s Mix94.5 and Adelaide’s SAFM across both stations and Breakfast shows, as well as solid growth in Sydney and Melbourne.

In Sydney, SCA’s investment in consistent lineups in an evolving market is showing momentum, with both 2DayFM and Triple M delivering growth in audience and share. 2DayFM’s Nath & Emma are engaging Sydneysiders by inviting them to play an active role in their show while Triple M’s Beau, Cat & Woodsy lean into their irreverence style and unique position as Sydney’s longest running breakfast team.

Melbourne’s biggest mover is The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick, with the biggest share (up 0.8 points to 9.6% share) and audience increase (up 46,000 listeners to 657,000) locally. Also in Melbourne, Triple M’s Mick in the Morning has achieved the station’s highest Breakfast audience since Survey 8, 2016 (up 25,000 listeners to 359,000), amidst growth in every daypart for the station.

Matthew O’Reilly, SCA’s Head of Broadcast Content, said: “SCA’s live and local approach has delivered great results in survey 2, marked by cume increases across nine stations and major network wins for both Hit and Triple M.

“Triple M continues to perform strongly, with station and breakfast wins in Adelaide and Brisbane. A renewed focus on the Hit Network has seen strong increases in share for SAFM Adelaide and Mix94.5 Perth. In Melbourne, The Fox was the city’s biggest mover in share and audience, and Triple M hit its highest breakfast audience since 2016.

“In Sydney’s shifting landscape 2Day FM and Triple M continues to build momentum with share and audience growth overall and in Breakfast. These results across the country reflect the hard work, creativity and commitment of our teams, and our consistent approach to our brands and shows.”

John Kelly, Southern Cross Media Group’s Interim Chief Executive Officer – TV & Audio, added: “Our live and local approach, combined with a consistent national lineup, has delivered strong outcomes across all markets in this survey. The power of SCA’s combined networks, with SCA and ACE, has again delivered a market-leading 37.1% commercial share amongst the 25–54 ‘Audience That Matters.’

“Importantly, we’ve seen a 17% increase in our 25-54 average audience since the start of the year, driving meaningful growth in the ‘Audience That Matters’ and creating greater scale and effectiveness for our advertising partners. Building on our Survey 1 results, this momentum positions us to deliver even greater value for clients and continued commercial growth across the calendar year.

“These results reflect the consistency and commitment of our Hit and Triple teams across the country. We’ve remained focused, been patient, and continued to invest in our shows. SCA remains unmatched in its ability to reach the Audience That Matters, and this momentum, and combined with the promotional support of the Seven assets, uniquely positions us for a successful year ahead.”

Commercial Radio & Audio (CRA) has welcomed the GfK Survey 2, 2026 results, with commercial radio reaching a record 12.8 million listeners weekly. For nearly four years commercial radio has sustained audiences exceeding 12 million demonstrating its resilience and stability for brands.¹

Lizzie Young, CEO of CRA, said: “A record audience last survey, topped again this survey. When a medium delivers at this scale, this consistently, it tells you that Australians rely on local, live commercial radio – and brands can too.

“As Australia’s only 100% locally owned and operated media channel, every advertising dollar supports local journalism, emergency broadcasting and thousands of Australian jobs. That combination of resilient scale and trusted community connection is what makes commercial radio unique.”

The shift to an audio everywhere approach has transformed how audiences consume content anytime, anywhere – with listeners moving seamlessly between AM, FM, DAB+, and streaming. Investment in platforms like CRA Audio ID and RadioApp are delivering the precision, transparency and scale advertisers require.

Commercial radio’s reach, alongside it’s proven effectiveness, makes the case for brands compelling. For every dollar invested in radio, brands see two dollars back – second only to social, outperforming video, TV, OOH, search and CTV.²

In an economic climate where household budgets and businesses are under pressure, audio’s ability to strengthen and defend pricing at almost double the level of campaigns without audio, earns its place on every media plan.³
