TVNZ still in talks on cuts

More than a month after Television New Zealand said up to 90 staff would be made redundant, negotiations are still going on with those whose jobs are threatened.

TVNZ spokeswoman Megan Richards said plans to cut numbers were "tracking as planned, as far as I know".

The network had said the job cuts were part of an attempt to save $25 million after lower-than-expected advertising revenue.

About 17 staff were expected to go from the station's news department nationally. About 11 of those were expected to be producers and journalists.

Ms Richards said it could be "some weeks" before matters were finalised.
