21 March 2024
Commenting on the appointment of an expert panel to advise on the future funding of the BBC, Chair of the Culture, Media and Sport Committee, Dame Caroline Dinenage MP, said:
“I welcome today’s announcement of a panel of experts to provide independent advice to the Government on its review of how the BBC is funded.
As the Committee heard from the Director General this week, the BBC is facing a number of financial challenges and commercial decisions as it looks to adapt to the changing media landscape.
Taking on board a wide range of views will be crucial to the process of developing a future funding model that is both financially sustainable and allows the BBC to continue to deliver for its viewers and listeners.”
