answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/11/2016 answer text <p>The output which HMG expects from BBC Monitoring is set down in a revised Monitoring Agreement, which is currently under negotiation with the BBC. This agreement will cover the next eleven years of the Charter period from January 2017. I will place copies of the new Monitoring Agreement, when signed, in the Libraries of both Houses.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/11/2016 answer text <p>The reduction in the budget to BBC Monitoring will not affect the provision of Core Services – including the monitoring of relevant foreign broadcasts – that BBCM is committed to provide under the revised Monitoring Agreement that will run from 2017 to 2028. The government may procure Additional Services, under the scope of the BBC Monitoring Agreement, which are additional to the Core Services. Procurement of commercial open source services by departments or agencies would, similarly, be to complement, not replace, BBCM Core outputs.</p> answering member constituency Rutland and Melton answering member printed Sir Alan Duncan question first answered 16/11/2016 16:29:35 answering member 343 label Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/11/2016 answer text <p>The Core Services from BBC Monitoring will be defined and set down in the new Monitoring Agreement that will run from 2017 to <ins class="ministerial">2028. </ins><del class="ministerial">2018.</del> This agreement will be an improvement on the existing [2013-2016] scheme, as it will be better focussed, reflect changes in the nature of open source information and have improved performance monitoring and strategic prioritisation mechanisms to ensure BBCM outputs remain topical, reflective of new media and focused on customer needs. We are confident that the changes to the services which will result from this new agreement will benefit the national security community.</p> answering member constituency Rutland and Melton answering member printed Sir Alan Duncan question first answered 16/11/2016 16:28:48 question first ministerially corrected 18/11/2016 13:16:10 answering member 343 label Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan previous answer version 20753 answering member constituency Rutland and Melton answering member printed Sir Alan Duncan answering member 343 label Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan
