    Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru / National Assembly for Wales Pwyllgor Diwylliant, y Gymraeg a Chyfathrebu / Culture, Welsh Language and Communications Committee Datganoli Darlledu / Devolution of Broadcasting CWLC DoB23 Ymateb gan BBC / Response from BBC Consultation on the Devolution of Broadcasting Culture, Welsh Language and Communications Committee January 2020 Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru / National Assembly for Wales Pwyllgor Diwylliant, y Gymraeg a Chyfathrebu / Culture, Welsh Language and Communications Committee Datganoli Darlledu / Devolution of Broadcasting CWLC DoB23 Ymateb gan BBC / Response from BBC 1. Introduction The BBC has been a cornerstone of Welsh life since the first broadcast in Wales nearly a century ago and BBC Wales is the country’s principal public service broadcaster. The Royal Charter is the constitutional basis for the BBC. It sets out the BBC’s Aims, Mission and Public Purposes. The Charter also outlines the Corporation’s governance and regulatory arrangements, including the role and composition of the BBC Board. The current Charter began on 1 January 2017 and ends on 31 December 2027. The BBC will not offer any view on the advisability - or otherwise - of devolving broadcasting since to do so would risk undermining the BBC’s commitment to impartiality on what is, clearly, a matter of public significance and ongoing political debate. However, to allow an informed debate to be conducted by the Committee, we believe it is valuable to set out some facts and figures about the BBC in Wales and to provide consistent data and a shared resource of information for interested parties. The information within this document relates to 2018/19, the period of the most recent BBC Annual Report & Accounts.

  • BBC Wales Regions Management Review 2013/14
    BBC Cymru Wales Management Review 2013/14 Management Review 2013/14 – Wales The BBC belongs to the public. They own it, they love it, and they expect only the best from it. Every day we have to show we are worthy of that commitment. If you wish to find out more about the BBC’s year – including full financial statements and performance against other public commitments – then please visit www.bbc.co.uk/annualreport Contents Front cover 01 Director’s introduction Hinterland/Y Gwyll – broadcast on 02 Two minute summary BBC One Wales, BBC Four and S4C 04 Service performance Sourced from: Fiction Factory/S4C/ 11 Looking ahead All3Media/Tinopolis 13 Key priorities for next year 14 Contacts Page 10 15 Wales management Sourced from: Chris Christodoulou Management Review 2013/14 – Wales Management Review 2013/14 – Wales Director’s introduction ‘‘ This review shares both our successes and our challenges – and very often they are the two sides of the same coin.’’ Choosing a personal highlight from the last year is a pretty tall order. Is it the warmth and wit of The Call Centre, the global scale and success of Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary, the brooding beauty of Hinterland or that thrilling denouement to Sherlock? There have been many landmark moments to celebrate over the past 12 months, of which we are immensely proud, but there are also quieter successes that have given just as much pleasure. Take BBC Radio Wales’s editorial transformation over recent years – and its continued strong performance. Or the reinvention of our Welsh language news programme, Newyddion 9, with its sharper and bolder agenda.

Cyflwyniad Mae’r BBC wedi bod yn un o gonglfeini bywyd Cymru ers y darllediad cyntaf yng Nghymru bron i ganrif yn ôl, a BBC Cymru Wales ydy prif ddarlledwr cyhoeddus y wlad. Y Siarter Frenhinol yw sail gyfansoddiadol y BBC. Mae’n nodi Nodau, Cenhadaeth a Dibenion Cyhoeddus y BBC. Mae’r Siarter hefyd yn amlinellu trefniadau llywodraethu a rheoleiddio’r Gorfforaeth, gan gynnwys rôl a chyfansoddiad Bwrdd y BBC. Dechreuodd y Siarter gyfredol ar 1 Ionawr 2017 a daw i ben ar 31 Rhagfyr 2027. Ni fydd y BBC yn cynnig unrhyw farn ynghylch pa mor addas neu anaddas fyddai datganoli darlledu oherwydd byddai gwneud hynny’n tanseilio ymrwymiad y BBC i fod yn ddiduedd ar yr hyn sydd, yn amlwg, yn fater o arwyddocâd cyhoeddus a thrafodaeth wleidyddol barhaus. Fodd bynnag, er mwyn i’r Pwyllgor allu cynnal trafodaeth ar sail gwybodaeth, rydym yn credu ei bod yn werth nodi rhai ffeithiau a ffigurau ynghylch y BBC yng Nghymru a darparu data cyson a rhannu gwybodaeth ar gyfer yn rheiny sydd â diddordeb. Mae’r wybodaeth yn y ddogfen hon yn ymwneud â 2018/19, cyfnod Adroddiad a Chyfrifon Blynyddol diweddaraf y BBC.

The media join the dots for our society - from education to transport, health to business - and provide the underpinnings of a vibrant political culture. Civil society depends on accurate and mature media. At a time when Wales as a democratic entity has never been more clearly defined, the sources of information for debate and scrutiny about our Government, culture and identity are drying up. This presents a major challenge to our society and democracy, and deserves to be taken seriously. To achieve good policy, comprehensive information is needed along with reliable analysis and that is what this audit of press, online and broadcast media sets out to present, along with policy recommendations rooted in the data.

  • The Role of Welsh Language Media in the Construction and Perceptions of Identity During Middle Childhood
    The role of Welsh language media in the construction and perceptions of identity during middle childhood. PhD: Helen Davies Aberystwyth University Volume I of II Abstract The aim of this research was to identify the role that minority language media plays in the construction and perceptions of identity during middle childhood, focusing on 10 to 12-year-old bilingual children in Wales. Often referred to as the ‘transition phase’, this period represents an important developmental milestone in the context of identity formation, where ‘the individual who was a child is now en route to becoming an adult’ (Durkin 1995: 508). The focus of this work is to attain a better understanding of how young [Welsh/English] bilingual children in Wales navigate these multiple identities. In order to achieve the aims of this research, the focus was placed on language and identity in relation to children’s use of and engagement with minority- language media. For many bilingual communities, there is a natural interaction that occurs between both languages through code-switching (cf. Wei, 2000). For multilingual children and young people, issues of cultural belonging and cultural identity can add to issues and challenges of self-representation and identity. Language competencies can vary and, for many, confidence in their own language ability can determine language use. Acknowledgements The completion of this doctoral research could not have been possible without the continued support from the staff at Aberystwyth University, family and friends. I would like to give special thanks to both Dr Merris Griffiths and Professor Elin Haf Gruffydd Jones for their guidance and support throughout this process.
