New Director-General Of The BBC
EDM number 2981 in 2010-12, proposed by Robert Halfon on 18/04/2012.
Categorised under the topic of Broadcasting.
That this House notes that a new Director-General is being recruited by the BBC; believes that this is a perfect opportunity to bring real democratic accountability and give licence fee payers the chance to elect the new head of the BBC; considers that the BBC cannot continue in the way of a 1970s kleptocracy, and that the undemocratic licence fee has become an anachronism in the days of multi-channel satellite television, as the BBC Licence Fee Payers (Voting Rights) Bill points out; and calls on the Government and the BBC Trust to give licence fee payers a genuine say on who will run the BBC in the future.
This motion has been signed by a total of 1 MPs.
