Overview 1 2. Background 7 3. The changing TV production landscape 14 4. Appraisal of the current regime and the Guidance 29 5. Review proposals 46 Annex A1. Responding to this consultation 65 A2. Ofcom’s consultation principles 68 A3. Consultation coversheet 69 A4. Consultation questions 70 Review of Regional TV Production and Programming Guidance 1. Overview Ofcom is reviewing the Regional Production and Programming Guidance (‘the Guidance’) 1 and associated reporting and compliance regime to ensure that the regulatory framework is effective in a rapidly evolving production landscape. Nations and regions’ production is a crucial part of the UK television production sector, accounting for almost half of public service broadcaster (‘PSB’) qualifying programme hours2 in 2017. TV production outside of London helps to disperse and stimulate investment and job opportunities in the sector, throughout the UK. This has resulted in the employment of a broad range of talent with a diversity of editorial perspectives, to create a wide variety of programmes for the enjoyment of UK viewers. This can also assist in strengthening regional production centres for the long term and supporting broader creative and cultural economies across the UK. To help promote nations and regions’ TV production, Ofcom has imposed quotas on the PSBs3 to ensure that a suitable proportion of their network programmes are made in the UK outside of the M25 (‘regional productions’). The BBC and Channel 3 services also have quotas to broadcast localised programmes, including regional news, across different areas of the UK (‘regional programming’), and a suitable proportion of these should be made in the local area.
