Recommendation 17

17 Paragraph: 103

Amend Draft Media Bill to retain Ofcom's duty for diverse analogue radio services

Recommendation
The Government’s proposal to remove the duty on Ofcom to provide for a diversity of national and local analogue services on AM/FM also appears premature, especially given the difficulties in some areas of accessing DAB services. We recommend that the Government amend the Draft Media Bill to ensure that this duty is retained.
