  • BBC Radio Scotland Service Licence
    BBC Radio Scotland Service Licence. Issued April 2016 BBC Radio Scotland Part l: Key characteristics of the service This service licence describes the most important characteristics of BBC Radio Scotland, including how it contributes to the BBC’s public purposes. Service Licences are the core of the BBC’s governance system. They aim to provide certainty for audiences and stakeholders about what each BBC service should provide. The Trust uses service licences as the basis for its performance assessment and as the basis for its consideration of any proposals for change to the UK public services from the BBC Executive. A service may not change in a way that breaches its service licence without Trust approval. The Trust presumes that any proposed change to a stated Key Characteristic of a licence will require it to undertake a Public Value Test. Should it decide not to carry out a Public Value Test before approving any such change, then it must publish its reasons in full. 1. Remit The remit of BBC Radio Scotland is to be a speech-led service for listeners seeking programmes about the life, culture and affairs of Scotland. In addition to local and national concerns, output should also address matters of UK and international significance from a Scottish perspective. BBC Radio Scotland should offer some highly targeted local programming, and support for BBC community stations. 2. Scope of this Licence BBC Radio Scotland should be available every day for general reception in Scotland on FM, Medium Wave and more widely on DAB digital radio and digital television platforms1, and it may be simulcast on the internet.

  • Media Nations: UK 2019
    Media nations: UK 2019 Published 7 August 2019 Overview This is Ofcom’s second annual Media Nations report. It reviews key trends in the television and online video sectors as well as the radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this narrative report is an interactive report which includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Media Nations report is a reference publication for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. This year’s publication is particularly important as it provides evidence to inform discussions around the future of public service broadcasting, supporting the nationwide forum which Ofcom launched in July 2019: Small Screen: Big Debate. We publish this report to support our regulatory goal to research markets and to remain at the forefront of technological understanding. It addresses the requirement to undertake and make public our consumer research (as set out in Sections 14 and 15 of the Communications Act 2003). It also meets the requirements on Ofcom under Section 358 of the Communications Act 2003 to publish an annual factual and statistical report on the TV and radio sector. This year we have structured the findings into four chapters. • The total video chapter looks at trends across all types of video including traditional broadcast TV, video-on-demand services and online video. • In the second chapter, we take a deeper look at public service broadcasting and some wider aspects of broadcast TV. • The third chapter is about online video. This is where we examine in greater depth subscription video on demand and YouTube.

  • 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.
