the public without a profit motive. These include national broadcasters like the SABC in
South Africa, which are funded by public funds and advertising revenue.

2. Commercial Broadcasting Licence: Issued to entities that operate for profit. These
broadcasters generate revenue primarily through advertising and subscription fees.
Examples include private radio and TV stations.

3. Community Broadcasting Licence: Given to non-profit organizations that serve specific
community interests. These broadcasters are typically managed by local groups and focus on
issues relevant to their communities.

define the extent of monitoring.

employees were informed about the monitoring practices to avoid legal liability.
