flag New Zealand lifts Sunday and holiday ad limits on broadcasters to match digital platforms, boosting local media income.

flag New Zealand will remove advertising restrictions on broadcasters for Sundays and public holidays after legislation passed third reading in Parliament. flag The change, supported by Media Minister Paul Goldsmith, aims to level the playing field between traditional broadcasters and digital streaming platforms, which face no such limits. flag Industry estimates suggest the reform could generate around $6 million annually for local media. flag The move follows years of advocacy and reflects shifting audience habits, with platforms like YouTube reaching 43% of New Zealanders daily. flag The government says the outdated rules no longer align with modern media consumption patterns.
