Future of the BBC
The motion
That the Parliament recognises what it sees as the uncertainty around the future funding model of the BBC, following recent UK Government remarks; understands that the people of Edinburgh Western value the content and output of the Corporation, from educational resources to local radio, and what it sees as ground-breaking television production; recognises that the BBC employs over 1,200 people in Scotland, and notes the view that the principle of public service broadcasting should be defended.
