Reviews of the Financial Terms Payable by Classic FM and Talksport – Determination
Reviews of the financial terms payable by Classic FM and talkSport – determination 20 January 2011 Introduction There are three Independent National Radio (INR) licences issued by Ofcom under the Broadcasting Act 1990 (“the 1990 Act”). They are the licences for Classic FM (held by Classic FM Ltd), talkSport (talkSport Ltd) and Absolute Radio (held by TIML Radio Ltd). The Digital Economy Act 2010 (“the 2010 Act”) included provisions which amend the 1990 Act1 to allow the INR licences to be renewed for up to a further seven years rather than be re- awarded under a competitive auction. Each of the INR licensees has applied for a renewal of their licences. The INR licensees are required to make annual “additional payments” to Ofcom (in turn payable to HM Treasury). Licensees pay fixed annual cash bids plus a Percentage of Qualifying Revenue (PQR) applied to the appropriate proportion of their advertising and sponsorship revenue. As part of the process of (further) licence renewal, Ofcom is required to set new financial terms for each licence, made up of a cash bid and a PQR. Ofcom has now determined these terms for Classic FM and talkSport (Absolute Radio will apply for renewal at a later date and we will complete this review in April). How financial terms are set Ofcom set out the methodology applied in calculating the financial terms for each licence in the statement entitled Review of the Independent Radio Licences – methodology for review of financial terms published on 5 October 2010 (‘the October statement’)2. Our methodology reflects the requirement under the relevant provisions of the 1990 Act3 to determine part of the financial terms based on an assessment of the amount each incumbent would have bid were their licence being for the further renewal period granted afresh in a competitive auction.

Service Review of Network Music Radio (Radio 1, Radio 2, Radio 3, 6 Music, 1Xtra, Asian Network)
Submission to BBC Trust Service Review of Network Music Radio (Radio 1, Radio 2, Radio 3, 6 Music, 1Xtra, Asian Network) from November 2014 INTRODUCTION This paper should be seen in conjunction with a submission to the BBC Trust from Classic FM’s parent company Global and also from RadioCentre. It focuses on BBC Radio 3 and its exceptional role in broadcasting and commissioning classical music. BBC Radio 3 holds a unique position in the British broadcasting landscape. Its strength in the past has been in its ability to use this unique position, with the safety net of generous public funding, to create bold, distinctive, brave programming, unfettered by the need to deliver audiences to advertisers. With a guaranteed income from the Licence Fee, BBC Radio 3 operates in common with other BBC services, without any fear of commercial failure. The position of BBC Radio 3 in the marketplace means that the BBC occupies a potentially market-distorting role in terms of the commissioning, broadcast and promotion of live classical music in the UK, either on radio or via digital online broadcasts. SUMMARY The BBC must have greater regard for the impact of BBC Radio 3 on the market place and on the classical music eco-system in the UK. In future, the BBC should enforce far tighter content requirements on publicly subsidised services such as BBC Radio 3, with far greater regard to the overall competitive broadcast marketplace when programming changes are made. Alone among any BBC radio or television service, it can be argued that BBC Radio 3’s uniquely guaranteed funding, along with the concentration of power in the hands of the station’s Controller, is unprecedented in any other area of broadcasting or the arts in the UK.

Radio 3 Content Analysis
BBC Trust: Service Review of BBC Network Music Radio Annex: Radio 3 content analysis About this analysis The Trust analysed two weeks of output from Radio 3 and Classic FM, from 22 September to 5 October 2014, in order to test how similar Radio 3’s music is to Classic FM’s in peak listening periods. This analysis used a log of music played on Radio 3, which was provided by the BBC. Classic FM’s repertory was taken from its playlist, which is published on its website. (Note we substituted a small amount of content for Classic FM from a later week, due to some gaps in the published data at the time of sourcing). For the purposes of the analysis we considered only Radio 3’s primary classical music output, so excluded Jazz, World Music, and programming that only provides short excerpts of music alongside speech (such as CD Review or Music Matters). The analysis included all of Classic FM’s music. The Radio 3 data supplied to us by the BBC included detail on the length of each piece played. As this was not available for Classic FM’s repertory, we estimated the average length of track on Classic FM using the published start times of each piece, then subtracting the estimated amount of speech content. We listened to six hours at different times of the day to provide an estimate of the proportion of speech/advertising to music. Based on this listening, we have estimated that around 20% of Classic FM’s output is not music, which we estimate increases to around 25% during its breakfast programme.

Through a series of keynote speeches and interactive panel discussions, the three-day online conference will focus on the theme of ‘Aftershock’, analysing the seismic issues that have sent shockwaves through the sector – from the devastating impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic and the threatening repercussions of Brexit, to the urgency of the climate change crisis and the reignited call to confront classical music’s inequities and action meaningful change in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement. It will also offer an opportunity to champion the invention and flexibility shown by orchestras and musicians in continuing to connect with audiences, and to discuss the new approaches they can take forward to adapt to the new post-COVID landscape and build recovery. For the first time, the opening day of the conference will be free to attend for musicians, hosted in partnership with Help Musicians.
