Calls for the Government to force streaming giants to invest in New Zealand content as local productions struggle.
The Screen Producers' Association says Netflix, Disney, Apple and Amazon should be forced to commission local programmes or pay into a fund from their local revenue
President Irene Gardiner says declining ad revenue means TVNZ and Three have cut local productions by $50 million dollars, and Kiwis are missing out on their own stories.

Gardiner says they’re not asking for charity, just fairness and a level playing ground.
