House of Lords written question – answered at on 6 July 2005.
asked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether there is a requirement in Northern Ireland for government-funded newspapers to be non-political, non-sectarian or community based publications; and whether they fund any newspapers in Northern Ireland.
Several newspapers in Northern Ireland have received funding from Northern Ireland departments, agencies and NDPBs. Funding was provided for a variety of purposes and was therefore not governed by a generic set of criteria.
