Multi-platform Coverage
Six constituencies were featured in broadcasts this week, with the six others already covered the week before.
Every live programme was fully interactive. Viewers watching from home, on their smart TV, tablet or even mobile phone, could send questions directly to the panel, through our digital platforms, putting their concerns, priorities and community issues straight to the candidates.
The programmes were hosted by Richard Slee and broadcasts ran across local media outlets, online streams and television platforms, making the debates accessible wherever you were.
