The ABC is not planning to slash any more locally-produced content as a result of federal government budget cuts.

The public broadcaster already has closed some regional radio outposts, scrapped the state-based Friday night editions of 7.30 and Radio National's Bush Telegraph program to meet $254 million in savings over five years.

ABC managing director Mark Scott told a Senate estimates hearing on Wednesday the content cuts were over for now and had allowed the broadcaster to reinvest in its digital services.
