Looking to the future for PSB delivery it is broadband that Ofcom promotes as offering an alternative platform to the main PSB channels for consideration by IPSOS-MORI in its Terms of Reference, so far as IPSOS-MORI recall. However, broadband is almost entirely rejected in this study (only 1% in favour) for the delivery of the social and public components of news and debate wanted nationally and more locally: requiring these elements of news and debate to remain on the 'main' PSB channels.
