Press Statement 8th May 2008.
In view of the present crisis within the SABC, the South African Screen Federation representing 17 professional bodies in the film and TV industry:
1/ Support the role of the SABC as a public broadcaster committed to quality local programming
2/ Believe political interference has undermined the original public service mandate of the SABC
3/ See the existing crisis as symptom of a long standing operational disfunctionality
4/ We independent filmmakers who make most of South Africa¹s TV programmes, experience daily the ineffective management which has undermined our capacity to produce quality and challenging programmes for the South African public.
We wish to see the SABC fully functioning for the entire public and all key stakeholders who make this possible.
Rehad Desai
Chairperson
