It would be pretty embarrassing/poor form for them to say that it's 'technical issues' (the normal meaning being a fault) when it's short staffing/cutbacks - bordering on dishonest.
It happens though. Although I have read anecdotes of the technical people in the gallery in one region threatening to pull the programme off air if a cock-up by production that meant an item that had been trailing couldn't be shown was described on air as a technical problem.
