<p>Following Charter Review in 2016, the government embedded impartiality into the
BBC’s Mission in the Charter. The BBC also has a duty to deliver impartial and accurate
news coverage and content under its Charter obligations. It is for the BBC Board to
ensure the quality of all BBC’s content, and that BBC output meets the highest standards
the public expect.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>It is not for the government to
make judgements about perceived political bias at the BBC. This is a matter for Ofcom,
as the BBC’s regulator. Ofcom is responsible for setting rules to ensure BBC coverage
is impartial and accurate under the Broadcasting Code and for holding the BBC to account
against its public purposes as the BBC regulator.</p><p> </p>
