    Review of Regional TV Production and Programming Guidance Consultation CONSULTATION: Publication Date: 19 December 2018 Closing Date for Responses: 27 February 2019 Contents Section 1. 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.

The regeneration of Cardiff Bay is now widely regarded as one of the most successful regeneration projects in the United Kingdom.[1] The Bay is supplied by two rivers (Taff and Ely) to form a 500-acre (2.0 km2) freshwater lake round the former dockland area south of the city centre. The Bay was formerly tidal, with access to the sea limited to a couple of hours each side of high water but now provides 24 hour access through three locks[2] . History Cardiff Bay played a major part in Cardiff’s development by being the means of exporting coal from the South Wales Valleys to the rest of the world, helping to power the industrial age. The coal mining industry helped fund the building of Cardiff into the Capital city of Wales and helped the Third Marquis of Bute, who owned the docks, become the richest man in the world at the time. As Cardiff exports grew, so did its population; dockworkers and sailors from across the world settled in neighbourhoods close to the docks, known as Tiger Bay, and communities from up to 45 different nationalities, including Norwegian, Somali, Yemeni, Spanish, Italian, Caribbean and Irish helped create the unique multicultural character of the area.

  • Evidence from Minister for Economy, Transport And
    Memorandum on the Economy and Transport Draft Budget Proposals for 2021-22 Economy, Infrastructure and Skills Committee – 20 January 2021 1.0 Introduction This paper provides information on the Economy & Transport (E&T) budget proposals as outlined in the 2021-22 Draft Budget published on 21 December 2020. It also provides an update on specific areas of interest to the Committee. 2.0 Strategic Context / Covid Impacts Aligned to Prosperity for All and the Well Being and Future Generations Act, the Economic Action Plan is the guiding policy and strategy document for all of Welsh Government’s activities. The 2021-22 plan builds on the considerable progress in implementing and embedding key elements of the plan, involving engagement with a range of stakeholders, particularly the business community and social partners. The pathway to Welsh economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic builds on the foundations of Prosperity for All: The Economic Action Plan. This shaped an economic development programme which invests in people and businesses - driving prosperity and reducing inequality across all of Wales. The mission builds on the early progress we have made in raising the profile and challenges in the Foundational Economy, recognising there is more to be done to spread and scale the approach. Other key initiatives, including Prosperity for All: A Low Carbon Wales, Cymraeg 2050, the Employability Delivery Plan and our Fair Work agenda, run through all interventions. The Well-being of Future Generations Act and its wider framework continue to provide a uniquely Welsh way of tackling the long-term challenges that our people and our planet face.

  • BBC Wales, Management Review, 2009/10
    WALES MANAGEMENT REVIEW 2009/10 a INTRODUCTION FROM DIRECTOR, BBC CYMRU WALES IN A YEAR WHEN DIGITAL SWITCHOVER SWEPT ACROSS THE COUNTRY, THE ROLE OF WALES’ nATIONAL BROADCASTER HAS NEVER BEEN CLEARER. Some said that digital switchover would change everything. By beaming countless additional channels into every home across Wales, some warned it would accelerate the fragmentation of viewing, weakening the social and civic ties that bind us together. And yet take a look at what actually happened. In 2009/10, almost a million viewers – the highest figures for at least five years – tuned into BBC Cymru Wales programming each and every week. On top of this success, our network output continued to attract worldwide attention, including Torchwood’s stunning debut on BBC One and BBC Two’s captivating Last Chance to See. That success is of course a tribute to the skills and resilience of our talented production teams – both in-house and across the independent sector – and many of their achievements are rightly “ THIS YEAR’S SUCCESS IS A POWERFUL REMINDER OF captured in this review. OUR AUDIENCE’S DEMAND FOR HIGH QUALITY AND Our success this year is a powerful reminder that in an age of apparent digital plenty – with all its countless distractions – our audience’s demand for high quality and distinctive national programming DISTINCTIVE NATIONAL PROGRAMMING.” is as strong and robust as ever. MENNA RICHARDS, It is, needless to say, a challenge and responsibility we relish. DIRECTOR, BBC CYMRU WALES Menna Richards COVER IMAGE Director, BBC Cymru Wales Presenter Eddie Butler tells the story of a 5th or early 6th century carved sandstone, part of a trail of historical objects inspired by our History of the World project, and which can be seen at the National Museum Wales in Cardiff.
