2011 review of Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Governance
The Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Governance review, announced by Lord Patten on his appointment in May 2011, set out to establish whether the current governance arrangements could be improved within the framework of the Royal Charter, which runs until 2017.
The review concluded that governance of the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ is workable, generally effective and provides benefits to licence fee payers and the industry but made some recommendations intended to strengthen the current arrangements. Following this review, we took action in the following areas:
- a clearer division of responsibilities between the Trust and the Executive Board
- a wider market impact role for Ofcom
- an improved editorial complaints and compliance system, and more regular impartiality reviews
- simplifying the rules governing the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµâ€™s services
