The AIB has submitted its response to the UK government’s Green Paper which is part of the review of the next BBC Royal Charter, due to start in 2007.

The AIB response, which has been forwarded to the UK Department of Culture, Media and Sport, carries the views of the Association’s members in regard to the future of the BBC, with particular emphasis on the BBC’s international operations.

“Part of the AIB’s role is to ensure that the voices of its members are heard by governments and regulators around the world,” commented Simon Spanswick, AIB chief executive. “We monitor media regulators and potential media legislation in many of the countries that AIB members operate in, and this includes the United Kingdom. The AIB makes sure that its members’ views are heard by legislators, regulators and politicians throughout the world.”
