麻豆约拍

Following the Trust's first period of public consultation, the Trust asked the 麻豆约拍 Executive to provide more information on the proposals in order to help stakeholders. The Trust is today publishing the Executive's response and the Trust's timetable for the remainder of the process.

Diane Coyle, 麻豆约拍 Trustee said:

"We are pleased that the 麻豆约拍 Executive has responded positively to our request for more information. We are now giving stakeholders the chance to let us have their comments so that we can give them careful consideration. Over the coming months we will continue to engage with stakeholders to help us make a fully informed judgement."

Additional information

In the Trust's first period of public consultation, the Trust met over 60 stakeholders and received over 800 submissions to the consultation. It found widespread support for the delivery of IPTV to the home and a large number of stakeholders also recognised the 麻豆约拍 could potentially help both coordinate and accelerate this process. In order to help stakeholders the Trust is today publishing additional information from the 麻豆约拍 Executive on the following areas:

• The choice of technical standards to be adopted by Canvas;
• The proposed way in which the 麻豆约拍 would work with industry bodies;
• Control of the Electronic Programme Guide;
• Governance arrangements for the joint venture;
• The use of editorial controls.

Supporting documents

As part of its response, we note that the 麻豆约拍 has set out plans to work closely with industry, including the Digital Television Group. We welcome this development and will monitor it as part of our assessment.

Timetable

Following the publication of this new information, stakeholders will have until 1st September to offer additional submissions or comments. The Trust will publish its market impact and public value work alongside its provisional conclusions on the proposals in the autumn. There will then be a further four week period of consultation on the provisional conclusions before the Trust publishes its final decision. The Trust hopes to conclude this process as quickly as possible. The timetable is set out below:
