Arts Report

In 2007/08 the Audience Council hosted a series of discussion events about ±«Óãtv arts coverage with stakeholders and members of the general audience. It prepared a report for the ±«Óãtv Trust which suggested areas where arts coverage could be improved.

Radio 2 and 6 Music

The Trust conducted a review of Radio 2 and 6 Music looking at the performance of the stations - including usage, quality, distinctiveness and value for money. The review included a public consultation.

Free-to-air listed events
