<p>We have taken note of the UN Commission of Inquiry recommendation that civil society
be supported to broadcast accessible information. We have helped to facilitate contact
between BBC Worldwide and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) broadcasting
authorities, to explore the possibility of the BBC supplying a range of programmes
to the DPRK.</p><p>Through our Embassy in Pyongyang, the UK is also one of the few
countries which is able to engage directly with the DPRK. This complements the efforts
of others who are already broadcasting into North Korea. The recent report of the
UN Commission of Inquiry into human rights in North Korea recognised the importance
of both approaches.</p>
