The Government recognises the value and importance of high quality public service content and the need for this to be widely accessible to viewers. That is why under the Digital Economy Act 2017, the government required Ofcom to publish a report which looks at the ease of finding PSB content across all platforms. Ofcom’s consultation on proposed changes to the linear EPG Code and the future of the prominence regime closed in October and the government looks forward to the publication of its findings.</p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 04/12/2018 17:30:16 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
