Office Of Communications

EDM number 1309 in 2001-02, proposed by Tim Yeo on 14/05/2002.

That this House believes that the Office of Communications should be responsible for regulating the whole of the media and communications industries; that there is no special case to be made for the BBC to be wholly or partly excluded from Ofcom; and that the Government should end this anomaly and establish a level playing field by bringing the BBC fully within Ofcom's remit, so as to leave the BBC governors with an important role, similar to the non-executive directors of other broadcasting organisations with public service obligations.

This motion has been signed by a total of 57 MPs.
