BBC cuts - make your voice heard
DATELINE: 8/3/10
On 2 March the BBC Trust published a proposed strategy for the BBC inviting views from the public and industry on the future direction for the corporation (see NUJ response - article dated 1 March below). It's now time for you to have your say.The proposals have been drawn up by the BBC Executive following a 'challenge' from the BBC Trust to the Director General to carry out a full scale review of the BBC's strategy.
The Trust issued the 'challenge' in July 2009 to address questions about the scope of the BBC's activities, focusing on how the BBC can most effectively deliver its public service mission and meet audience needs and deliver value for money.
The proposals will now be subject to a 12 week consultation (ending 25 May). The Executive's proposals can be found on the Strategy review page http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbctrust/news/press_releases/march/strategic_review.shtml
