programmes funded by new zealand on air often have the announcement. initially the announcement went: "this programme was made with the help of your broadcasting fee – so you can see more of new zealand on air" (later "this programme was made with funding from new zealand on air", once the broadcasting fee had been abolished). more commonly, at the end of a broadcast, a programme will state: "thank you, new zealand on air, for helping us make (name of the show)."
