Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
We want transparency for the SoS DDCMS Public Service Broadcasting Advisory Panel. We want to know how its members were selected, copies of the agendas of any panel meetings, the names of any organisation(s) or individual(s) that have presented to the panel and the nature of the presentation(s) made
The British public service broadcasting system is unique. Between them the BBC, ITV, C4 and C5 promote quality, diversity, innovation, respectful debate, and trust, as well as pan-UK production and portrayal. It underpins the ways in which we as individuals, as nations and regions, relate to each other and to the world. Its independence from government and its commitment to impartiality serve everyone. Any debate over its future needs openness to secure the broad public trust and support.
Why it was rejected
It was a request for information, better suited to a Freedom of Information request.
