  • Service Review
    Delivering Quality First in Northern Ireland DELIVERING QUALITY FIRST IN NORTHERN IRELAND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The BBC in Northern Ireland aims to bring the highest quality, most distinctive programmes and services to local audiences, reflecting the diversity of its cultures, communities and languages, and informing, educating and entertaining all its citizens. Our ambition is to deliver content driven by the unique needs of our local audiences, fulfilling the BBC’s public purposes within the context of political, economic and social change in Northern Ireland. The capacity to evaluate and reflect a Northern Ireland society during this period of significant transformation is at the heart of our proposition. Northern Ireland-specific output such as BBC Radio Ulster/Foyle is extremely popular and highly distinctive. On television, BBC Newsline and the current affairs programme Spotlight combine with live sports coverage and a wide range of non-news programming such as The Estate, Belfast Blitz and House of the Year to deliver significant value to local audiences. In the first quarter of 2011, ten of BBC One Northern Ireland’s top twenty programmes were locally made Northern Ireland programmes. Within a very competitive television news market, the BBC’s television news specifically for Northern Ireland audiences (BBC Newsline) is highly trusted and valued by our audience. When the BBC’s programmes for Northern Ireland audiences opt into the BBC One and BBC Two network schedules, they consistently add to the overall channel performance. BBC Radio Ulster/Foyle reaches on average almost 38% of the Northern Ireland adult population each week – amongst the highest reach of all of the BBC’s national and local radio services.

  • Radiocentre's Response to the BBC Trust Review of the BBC's National Radio Stations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales
    RadioCentre’s response to the BBC Trust review of the BBC’s national radio stations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales 1. Executive summary 1.1. We welcome the fact that a significant degree of scrutiny is being applied to the BBC Nations services, via the BBC Trust’s ongoing service licence review process. The Nations services were largely overlooked during the 2010 BBC Strategy Review process – we considered this to be unfortunate given the relatively high level of licence fee funding invested in them, their potential market impact, and - most importantly - their disproportionate political and social importance. 1.2. The BBC’s radio services in the Nations – BBC Radio Ulster/Foyle (Northern Ireland), BBC Radio Scotland and BBC Radio nan Gàidheal (Scotland), BBC Radio Wales and BBC Radio Cymru (Wales) – should embody the ideals of public service broadcasting: that is, providing distinctive, high quality, informative speech content that adds significant value to the body politic. 1.3. We believe that the BBC’s Nations services do largely fulfil this role. However, aspects of these services fail to meet such high standards, in the following areas: ‐ Music/speech output. The service licences of the English language Nations services state that they should be ‘speech-led’, yet they all broadcast a significant amount of music during daytime. We believe that the service licences of all English language BBC Nations services should be amended, to require them to broadcast 100% speech during daytime. ‐ Audience profile. The English language Nations services currently lack a target age demographic. We believe that all BBC Radio service licences should contain a specific target age range, in order to ensure maximisation of public value and avoid duplication with the commercial sector.

  • Bbc Radio Foyle Efficiency Savings
    RESEARCH AND LIBRARY SERVICES BRIEFING NOTE 93/09 Northern Ireland Assembly BBC RADIO FOYLE EFFICIENCY SAVINGS On the 22 October 2009 BBC Northern Ireland announced the ‘second phase’ of its saving and investment programme to be implemented out throughout 2010/11, involving the ‘closure’ of approximately 25 to 30 post across the business. These proposals, which form part of a five-year efficiency savings plan, will include what the BBC refer to as deriving “greater benefits from a stronger partnership between BBC Radio Foyle and BBC Radio Ulster”, as well as: • refocusing of drama priorities to secure more productions within Northern Ireland; • localising of news production by relocating newsgathering to local communities outside of Belfast; and • taking advantage of new broadcast technology. To date, the efficiency programme has achieved a total annualised saving of £5.8m. A further £4.8m saving target is to be achieved between now and 2012/13.i The announcement regarding the future of BBC Radio Foyle has been subject to speculation in the local press. The Derry Journal, for example, reported: “More than half of BBC Radio Foyle’s programmes could be axed and jobs lost under a major cost-cutting drive by BBC Northern Ireland, the ‘Journal’ has learned. The station’s flagship ‘News at Once’ slot and the popular Sean Coyle and Mark Patterson programmes will be replaced by existing shows on Radio Ulster – if proposals by management in Belfast get the green light”.ii The report adds that up to four jobs could be lost at the station, which could also lose its Saturday Sports and Saturday Club programmes.
