  • Choice and Offer Responsible Broadcasters Who Choose
    REVIEW OF THE RULES FOR MANDATORY DAYTIME PIN PROTECTIONS - CALL FOR INPUTS RESPONSE FROM SKY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. Sky welcomes the opportunity to respond to Ofcom’s call for inputs on the rules around mandatory daytime pin protections. 2. The way in which consumers watch TV is changing. Linear viewing is in decline as viewers choose to consume an increasingly varied mix of linear and on demand audiovisual content across a range of platforms and devices. As a result, consumers now expect and demand access to a wider range of content at all times of the day. 3. The ability for broadcasters of linear channels to meet this demand is restricted by the watershed, which expressly prohibits the broadcast of content unsuitable for children during the daytime. In 2004, Ofcom introduced an exemption to the watershed. Rules 1.24 and 1.25 of the Broadcasting Code (together referred to as “Daytime PIN” in this response) provide that broadcasters may show post-watershed content on premium subscription movie and pay per view (‘PPV’) services provided this content is subject to mandatory restricted access before the watershed. 4. Sky’s experience is that a ‘Digital Watershed’ is both technically available on television platforms and more importantly it can give viewers what they want - more control over how they watch programmes, with effective and appropriate protection for the most vulnerable viewers. 5. Mandatory daytime PIN would provide better protection than the watershed, and would provide protections tailored to an individual customer or family’s need. It would strengthen the range of protection and tools already on offer.
