The M-Net/MultiChoice COVID-19 R80 million fund was
established specifically to support all its current running productions. To
access this support, each producer is asked to speak to their specific
Commissioning Editor as urgently as possible to resolve on a case-by-case
basis. The governing principle for current running productions is the
consideration of what deliverables were due in April, what was actually
delivered and what is required to ensure that salaries are able to be paid at
April month-end.
In the case of productions where work had commence
but nothing has been delivered as yet, producers are encouraged to reach out to
the Commissioning Editors
The IPO and SASFED will continue engaging with all
broadcasters to identify support that may be extended beyond end-April, given
the inevitability of restrictions remaining in place for the sector beyond the
partial lifting of lockdown.
