  • Register of Journalists' Interests
    REGISTER OF JOURNALISTS’ INTERESTS (As at 11 July 2018) INTRODUCTION Purpose and Form of the Register Pursuant to a Resolution made by the House of Commons on 17 December 1985, holders of photo- identity passes as lobby journalists accredited to the Parliamentary Press Gallery or for parliamentary broadcasting are required to register: ‘Any occupation or employment for which you receive over £770 from the same source in the course of a calendar year, if that occupation or employment is in any way advantaged by the privileged access to Parliament afforded by your pass.’ Administration and Inspection of the Register The Register is compiled and maintained by the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Anyone whose details are entered on the Register is required to notify that office of any change in their registrable interests within 28 days of such a change arising. An updated edition of the Register is published approximately every 6 weeks when the House is sitting. Changes to the rules governing the Register are determined by the Committee on Standards in the House of Commons, although where such changes are substantial they are put by the Committee to the House for approval before being implemented. Complaints Complaints, whether from Members, the public or anyone else alleging that a journalist is in breach of the rules governing the Register, should in the first instance be sent to the Registrar of Members’ Financial Interests in the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Where possible the Registrar will seek to resolve the complaint informally. In more serious cases the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards may undertake a formal investigation and either rectify the matter or refer it to the Committee on Standards.

  • Ultra HD Playout & Delivery
    Ultra HD Playout & Delivery SOLUTION BRIEF The next major advancement in television has arrived: Ultra HD. By 2020 more than 40 million consumers around the world are projected to be watching close to 250 linear UHD channels, a figure that doesn’t include VOD (video-on-demand) or OTT (over-the-top) UHD services. A complete UHD playout and delivery solution from Harmonic will help you to meet that demand. 4K UHD delivers a screen resolution four times that of 1080p60. Not to be confused with the 4K digital cinema format, a professional production and cinema standard with a resolution of 4096 x 2160, UHD is a broadcast and OTT standard with a video resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels at 24/30 fps and 8-bit color sampling. Second-generation UHD specifications will reach a frame rate of 50/60 fps at 10 bits. When combined with advanced technologies such as high dynamic range (HDR) and wide color gamut (WCG), the home viewing experience will be unlike anything previously available. The expected demand for UHD content will include all types of programming, from VOD movie channels to live global sporting events such as the World Cup and Olympics. UHD-native channel deployments are already on the rise, including the first linear UHD channel in North America, NASA TV UHD, launched in 2015 via a partnership between Harmonic and NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. The channel highlights incredible imagery from the U.S. space program using an end-to-end UHD playout, encoding and delivery solution from Harmonic. The Harmonic UHD solution incorporates the latest developments in IP networking and compression technology, including HEVC (High- Efficiency Video Coding) signal transport and HDR enhancement.
