star this property answer text <p>Government officials have met with interest groups and stakeholders regarding accessibility for visual and hearing impaired consumers, specifically for on-demand services. In December 2017 DCMS asked Ofcom to provide recommendations on making on-demand services more accessible to a wider range of consumers, including the hearing impaired. Ofcom consulted on this, and published its report in December 2018 with recommendations on the scope of new regulations for on-demand services. Government will continue to engage with interested parties as we take this matter forward.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>The Communications Act 2003 already requires broadcasters to ensure that they provide access services on linear TV. These are audio description, subtitling, and sign language services. Ofcom are responsible for administering the Code on Television Access Services which sets out what proportion of programming must have access services. The Digital Economy Act 2017 made provision for regulations to ensure that there are also access services for video on demand players. Ofcom consulted on these proposals this summer and are due to submit their report to the Secretary of State shortly.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>The capacity of broadcasters to meet their access service obligations is for Ofcom to assess. Ofcom’s Code requires broadcasters to achieve the highest level of provision that they can afford. Broadcasters are free to over deliver on access services, and Ofcom research shows that many do. The BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Sky voluntarily commit to providing at least 20% of their programming with audio description, which is double their statutory obligation.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> more like this
