Savings exist in ABC 24: Liberal MP

Liberal MP Steven Ciobo believes the ABC could find savings in its 24-hour news channel because a similar service exists on pay TV.
Asked if he thought the ABC had become too large, Mr Ciobo said he found it "strange" ABC ran an all-day news service when similar programming exists on subscription television's Sky News.
"There's certainly scope for savings there," he told Channel Ten's Bolt Report.
