Uncertainty for 30 staff at TVNZ as the company looks to out-source the production of all but one of its Maori and Pacific Island programmes.

It's inviting independent producers to take on production of all shows, with the exception of Te Karere, from next year.

TVNZ spokeswoman Megan Richards says the company is today discussing it with 30 staff and contractors involved in those shows.

She says if it goes ahead, TVNZ will be encouraging the production companies to take on their existing staff to make use of their expertise.
