  • S4C Review of Statement of Programme Policy 2008
    S4C Review of Statement of Programme Policy 2008 Introduction This is the S4C Authority’s Review of the performance of S4C’s public services against the Statement of Programme Policy 2008. This Review was prepared in accordance with the requirements outlined in paragraph 4(1) (b) of Annex 2 of the Communications Act 2003. The Review is based on the objectives set out in the Statement of Programme Policy 2008. The Statement noted that S4C would continue to develop and invest in the provision for children in line with the results of the S4C Authority Consultation into services for children. This aim was fulfilled. 2008 was a historic year for S4C’s Programmes and Content Service with the launch of Cyw , the new service for young children. Nursery provision was extended from one hour to six and a half hours per day, five days a week, and a number of brand new series and characters were introduced to the screen. As mentioned in the Statement of Programme Policy, 2008 was designated a ‘Green Year’ by S4C and there were several highlights to this special season of programming, including Natur Cymru , Yr Afon and Byw yn Ardd. There was an undertaking to use suitable distribution platforms with an emphasis on broadband to increase the value and usage of S4C content. In September, S4/Clic was launched – the Channel’s online viewing service developed to improve the view-again service first introduced in 2006. As a result, there was a year-on-year increase of 182% in the online viewing sessions during 2008, in comparison with 2007.
