The Media and Communications Minister says cutting funding for NZ on Air and the Film Commission isn't on the table. 

The Government is asking for feedback on five proposals, aiming to help local media go up against international competitors. 

One includes merging the Commission and NZ on Air.

Paul Goldsmith says the two categories are becoming far less distinct - and a merger could even give both more funds.

"Rather than having two organisations doling it out - if you had one, that could be a more efficient way of doing it. We're not suggesting changing the overall funding levels, that's just how it's administered."
