There is no technical reason why the direction of
recent policy has been to foster more commercial services at the
expense of public service provision. Given that, the solution resides
in looking at the overall policy framework within which UK
broadcasting operates. This would mean rolling out public service
obligations across the sector, in exchange, perhaps for tax or
regulatory concessions. Unless this is done, and unless the BBC is set
on a level playing field with its competitors, it will, like public
service broadcasting in the USA, wither on the vine. Not immediate
death, but death by a thousand minor policy instruments. The Campaign
for Press Broadcasting Freedom therefore considers that the current
framework governing broadcasting in the UK should be changed to place
strong public service obligations on all major providers, so as to
ensure the future of high quality, independent broadcasting and
related services

There should be positive regulation of the media and communications.
The UK’s Communications Bill appears to serve sectional commercial
interests. The Communications Bill states that OFCOM is meant
primarily to promote economic competition in the media. It is designed
to allow as much self- regulation by the media as possible.
