Ofcom must include these standards in a code or codes. These are listed below. Ofcom also has a duty to secure that every provider of a notifiable On Demand Programme Services (“ODPS”) complies with certain standards requirements as set out in the Act2. The Broadcast Bulletin reports on the outcome of investigations into alleged breaches of those Ofcom codes below, as well as licence conditions with which broadcasters regulated by Ofcom are required to comply. We also report on the outcome of ODPS sanctions referrals made by ATVOD and the ASA on the basis of their rules and guidance for ODPS. These Codes, rules and guidance documents include: a) Ofcom’s Broadcasting Code (“the Code”). b) the Code on the Scheduling of Television Advertising (“COSTA”) which contains rules on how much advertising and teleshopping may be scheduled in programmes, how many breaks are allowed and when they may be taken. c) certain sections of the BCAP Code: the UK Code of Broadcast Advertising, which relate to those areas of the BCAP Code for which Ofcom retains regulatory responsibility. These include: the prohibition on ‘political’ advertising; sponsorship and product placement on television (see Rules 9.13, 9.16 and 9.17 of the Code) and all commercial communications in radio programming (see Rules 10.6 to 10.8 of the Code); ‘participation TV’ advertising. This includes long-form advertising predicated on premium rate telephone services – most notably chat (including ‘adult’ chat), ‘psychic’ readings and dedicated quiz TV (Call TV quiz services). Ofcom is also responsible for regulating gambling, dating and ‘message board’ material where these are broadcast as advertising3. d) other licence conditions which broadcasters must comply with, such as requirements to pay fees and submit information which enables Ofcom to carry out its statutory duties. Further information can be found on Ofcom’s website for television and radio licences. e) rules and guidance for both editorial content and advertising content on ODPS. Ofcom considers sanctions in relation to ODPS on referral by the Authority for Television On-Demand (“ATVOD”) or the Advertising Standards Authority (“ASA”), co-regulators of ODPS for editorial content and advertising respectively, or may do so as a concurrent regulator. Other codes and requirements may also apply to broadcasters and ODPS, depending on their circumstances. These include the Code on Television Access Services (which sets out how much subtitling, signing and audio description relevant 1 The relevant legislation is set out in detail in Annex 1 of the Code. 2 The relevant legislation can be found at Part 4A of the Act. 3 BCAP and ASA continue to regulate conventional teleshopping content and spot advertising for these types of services where it is permitted. Ofcom remains responsible for statutory sanctions in all advertising cases. 5 Ofcom Broadcast Bulletin, Issue 236 27 August 2013 licensees must provide), the Code on Electronic Programme Guides, the Code on Listed Events, and the Cross Promotion Code. It is Ofcom’s policy to describe fully the content in television, radio and on demand content. Some of the language and descriptions used in Ofcom’s Broadcast Bulletin may therefore cause offence. 6 Ofcom Broadcast Bulletin, Issue 236 27 August 2013 Notice of Sanction Noor TV Paigham-e-Mustafa, 3 May 2012, 11:00 Introduction Noor TV is a digital satellite television channel that broadcasts programmes about Islam in a number of languages, including English, Urdu and Punjabi. It can be received in the United Kingdom, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. The licence for the Noor TV service is held by Al Ehya Digital Television Limited. Summary of Decision In its finding published on 17 December 2012 in issue 220 of Ofcom’s Broadcast Bulletin1, Ofcom found that Al Ehya had seriously breached the Code by broadcasting material which was in breach of Rules 3.1 and 4.1: Rule 3.1: “Material likely to encourage or incite the commission of crime or to lead to disorder must not be included in television or radio services”. Rule 4.1: “Broadcasters must exercise the proper degree of responsibility with respect to the content of programmes which are religious programmes.” Ofcom considered these to be very serious breaches of the Code. The broadcast of material likely to encourage crime or lead to disorder has the potential to cause significant harm. Further, the Licensee failed to have in place robust compliance procedures that could have prevented the material being broadcast. In accordance with Ofcom’s Penalty Guidelines, Ofcom decided it was appropriate and proportionate in the very serious circumstances of this broadcast to impose a financial penalty of £85,000 on Al Ehya Digital Television Limited in respect of the Code breaches (payable to HM Paymaster General). In addition, Ofcom considered that the Licensee should be directed to broadcast a statement of Ofcom’s findings in this case, on a date and in a form to be determined by Ofcom and be directed never to repeat this material on its service again. The full adjudication is available at: http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/binaries/enforcement/content-sanctions- adjudications/noor-tv.pdf 1 http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/binaries/enforcement/broadcast- bulletins/obb220/obb220.pdf. 7 Ofcom Broadcast Bulletin, Issue 236 27 August 2013 Notice of Sanction Programme about the attack on Lieutenant-General Brar Sangat TV, 1 October 2012, 19:40 Introduction Sangat TV is a general entertainment satellite broadcaster that broadcasts in English and Punjabi. It is based in Birmingham and broadcasts via the Eutelsat 28A - Sky UK satellite to the Sikh community. The licence holder for Sangat TV is Regis 1 Limited1 (“the Licensee”). The sanction relates to a programme concerning an attack on the retired Indian army general, Kuldip Singh Brar, who led the controversial military operation against the Golden Temple at Amritsar in 1984. The attack took place on 30 September 2012 and was conducted on a London street by a number of Sikh extremists with knives. Lieutenant-General Brar survived the attack. Summary of Decision In its findings published on 21 January 2013 in Broadcast Bulletin 2222, Ofcom found that the programme contained material likely to encourage or incite the commission of crime. In particular, the programme contained statements from various contributors that Ofcom found were likely to encourage members of the Sikh community to take violent action against Lieutenant-General Brar, other members of the Indian armed forces who had taken part in Operation Bluestar in June 1984, or those who supported that military operation. Ofcom found that the programme breached Rule 3.1 of the Code: Rule 3.1: “Material likely to encourage or incite the commission of crime or to lead to disorder must not be included in television or radio services.” Ofcom considered these to be very serious breaches of the Code. The broadcast of material likely to encourage crime or lead to disorder has the potential to cause significant harm.

  • Diverse on Screen Talent Directory
    BBC Diverse Presenters The BBC is committed to finding and growing diverse onscreen talent across all channels and platforms. We realise that in order to continue making the BBC feel truly diverse, and improve on where we are at the moment, we need to let you know who’s out there. In this document you will find biographies for just some of the hugely talented people the BBC has already been working with and others who have made their mark elsewhere. It’s the responsibility of every person involved in BBC programme making to ask themselves whether what, and who, they are putting on screen reflects the world around them or just one section of society. If you are in production or development and would like other ideas for diverse presenters across all genres please feel free to get in touch with Mary Fitzpatrick Editorial Executive, Diversity via email: [email protected] Diverse On Screen Talent Directory Presenter Biographies Biographies Ace and Invisible Presenters, 1Xtra Category: 1Xtra Agent: Insanity Artists Agency Limited T: 020 7927 6222 W: www.insanityartists.co.uk 1Xtra's lunchtime DJs Ace and Invisible are on a high - the two 22-year-olds scooped the gold award for Daily Music Show of the Year at the 2004 Sony Radio Academy Awards.
