The proposals would see the 39 stations keep their current schedule from 6am to 2pm, but after that shows would be shared. There would be 10 local programmes between 6-10pm on weekdays, across the day on Saturday, as well as on Sunday mornings. There will be one "all-England" show from 10pm across the week, and on Sunday afternoons. Live sports programming will not be affected. Claire Carter puts your questions to Rhodri Talfan Davies.
