    DP1153 BPV Frontcover.qxd 6/25/04 2:52 PM Page 1 Building public value Renewing the BBC for a digital world CONTENTS Chairman’s prologue 3 Overview and summary 5 PART I: The BBC’s purpose, role and vision 1 Why the BBC matters 25 2 Changing media in a changing society 48 3 Building public value in the future 60 4 Demonstrating public value 83 5 The breadth of BBC services 89 6 Renewing the BBC 98 7 Paying for BBC services 112 PART II: Governing the BBC 123 Conclusion 135 1 2 Chairman’s prologue The BBC does not have a monopoly on wisdom about its own future. This is a contribution to the debate over Charter renewal, not the last word. I look to a vigorous and informed public debate to produce the consensus about the future size, shape and mission of the BBC. This document is itself a consensus, arrived at after a vigorous debate inside the BBC, and represents the considered views of Governors and management. Part II – our proposals on governance – is, of course, entirely the responsibility of the Governors. At the heart of Building public value is a vision of a BBC that maintains the ideals of its founders, but a BBC renewed to deliver those ideals in a digital world. That world contains the potential for limitless individual consumer choice. But it also contains the possibility of broadcasting reduced to just another commodity, with profitability the sole measure of worth. A renewed BBC, placing the public interest before all else, will counterbalance that market-driven drift towards programme-making as a commodity.
