The Review of the BBC's Royal Charter: 1st Report of Session 2005-06The Stationery Office, 2005 - 84 lappuses The Committee's report examines the Government's proposals for the future of the BBC, as set out in the Government's Green Paper ("A strong BBC, independent of government") published by the DCMS in March 2005 for consultation. The Committee's conclusions include i) that the BBC's mandate and structure should be defined in statute rather than by Royal Charter; ii) the licence fee is the best way to fund the BBC over the next decade, although the system for agreeing the cost of the fee should be more transparent, with the BBC bid subject to independent investigation by the NAO; iii) the Government, rather than the licence fee payer, should fund the costs of the analogue switch-off; and iv) the Government's proposals for reforming the governance and regulation of the BBC are confusing, misguided and unworkable. A further report is due to be published by the Committee in Spring 2005 which will focus on the role of the BBC in the nations and the regions, the BBC World Service and the broadcasting of sport and religion. |
