Industry roundtables

Organisation responses 

Several organisations responded requesting that their submission remain confidential.

Significance tests

The Trust is required to undertake a Public Value Test (PVT) where a proposal constitutes a significant change to the ±«Óătv's UK Public Services.

In deciding whether a proposal is significant, we look at the impact on users and others (with advice from Ofcom), financial implications, novelty and duration of the proposed change. The significance tests we have undertaken as part of Delivering Quality First are below.

Nations statements

We asked the Executive to set out what the ±«Óătv intends to offer audiences in each Nation of the UK as part of Delivering Quality First. The statements prepared by the Executive will be published today on the About the ±«Óătv website.
