It was announced on 4 November 2015 that the 2016 Logie Awards would reinstate the Logie Award for Best Factual Program, as well as a new publicly-voted category for Best News Panel or a Current Affairs Program. Two new industry-voted awards will also be given, Logie Award for Most Outstanding Supporting Actor and Actress. Additionally, all publicly-voted category awards changed their title from "Most Popular" to "Best Awards".[3]
