BBC Radio's Regulatory Bodies

The next task for my media institution case study, I had to research regulatory bodies of the chosen media institution.

BBC’s Regulatory bodies

 

BBC Trust

Led by the chairman the BBC trust is made up of 12 trustees with a wide range of experience.

There are 4 national trustees who represent England, Scotland, Whales and Northern Ireland. There is also an international trustee who has specific oversight of BBC’s international public services.

, including BBC World Service.All trustees are appointed  by the queen on advice from the ministers after an open selection process. The trust is the sovereign body within the BBC. It is independent from the BBC’s executive board which is led by the director general.

The trust unit supports trustees by giving independent expert advice and administrative support.
