  • Local TV Summary of Responses to the Local Media Action Plan
    Local TV Summary of responses to the Local Media Action Plan June 2011 1 Our aim is to improve the quality of life for all through cultural and sporting activities, support the pursuit of excellence, and champion the tourism, creative and leisure industries. 2 Local TV Introduction 1. In January 2011, DCMS published a Local Media Action Plan1 setting out options for the creation of a new network of local television services. This plan followed the Shott Review published in December 20102 which looked at the conditions necessary for commercially viable local TV to emerge in the UK. 2. The Local Media Action Plan invited expressions of interest from groups and organisations that had an interest in providing a network channel that would carry and support local services. In addition, DCMS invited comments and views on a range of other questions around provision of local TV. 3. In total, DCMS received 140 responses to the action plan. This was made up of 21 expressions of interest in operating some form of network channel (ranging from centralised models to not-for-profit models to locally owned models); 43 expressions of interest in providing a range of local services; 5 expressions of interest in providing nations-based (i.e. Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland specific) services; and 71 responses offering comments on the local TV policy proposition more generally. 4. A summary of the responses are set out at Annex A. A list of those who responded is set out at Annex B. Key considerations in determining the Local TV model 5. The Secretary of State’s objectives for local TV are a key part of the Government’s localism agenda.

  • The Value of Public Service Media
    The Value of Public Service Media T he worth of public service media is under increasing scrutiny in the 21st century as governments consider whether the institution is a good investment and a fair player in media markets. Mandated to provide universally accessible services and to cater for groups that are not commercially attractive, the institution often con- fronts conflicting demands. It must evidence its economic value, a concept defined by commercial logic, while delivering social value in fulfilling its largely not-for-profit public service mission and functions. Dual expectations create significant complex- The Value of ity for measuring PSM’s overall ‘public value’, a controversial policy concept that provided the theme for the RIPE@2012 conference, which took place in Sydney, Australia.

Creative clusters and innovation Putting creativity on the map Foreword No one doubts the economic importance of the creative industries to the UK. At 6.2 per cent of the economy, and growing at twice the rate of other sectors, they are proportionately the largest of any in the world. But there is some evidence that the UK’s creative industries support innovation and growth in other parts of the economy too. The significance of these spillovers has only recently begun to be examined rigorously. And we know next to nothing about their geographical dimensions. This gap in our understanding is what NESTA set out to address in Creative Clusters and Innovation, the outcome of a two-year collaboration with Birmingham and Cardiff Universities.
