NUJ Highland chapel at BBC Scotland shows solidarity with STV colleagues
The NUJ’s Highland chapel at BBC Scotland has passed a motion showing solidarity with STV colleagues in light of proposed cuts to jobs and programming.
The full motion said:
“The NUJ’s Highland chapel at BBC Scotland expresses solidarity with colleagues at STV over planned cutbacks. The loss of dozens of jobs and the axing of the north of Scotland news programme would be damaging to communities across the Highlands and Islands. It’s vital the north of Scotland continues to have a robust journalistic capacity and we urge STV management to think again and protect jobs and this important news service.”
The full motion in Gaelic:
“Tha Seipeal na Gàidhealtachd an NUJ aig a' BhBC a' seasamh gualainn ri gualainn le ar co-obraichean aig STV a thaobh nan geàrraidhean a tha san amharc a sin. Bhiodh call nan dusanan de dh'obraichean agus geàrradh a' phrògram naidheachd aig tuath a' dèanamh cron do choimhearsnachdan air feadh na Gàidhealtachd agus nan Eilean. Tha e deatamach gum bi obair naidheachd aig àrd-ìre a' dol sa cheann a tuath agus tha sinn a' cur ìmpidh air manaidsearan aig STV smaoineachadh a-rithist agus na h-obraichean 's an seirbheis naidheachd seo a ghlèidheadh.”
