UNESCO, like many other professional organizations and recognized experts believes that in today’s interplay of changing technological, commercial, political and cultural factors, editorially independent Public Service Broadcasting is more relevant than ever. Neither commercial nor state-controlled public service broadcasting’s raison d’ªtre is to offer a public service, a public space where all citizens are welcome and considered equals. In developing countries, PSB has a key mission in promoting access to education and culture, developing knowledge and fostering interaction among citizens. The workshop’s objectives are to promote internationally recognized principles of PSB and to show the crucial importance of PSB today and tomorrow, particularly its educational, cultural and societal dimensions as well as its role as a gateway to information and knowledge (for the majority of the world population, comprising inhabitants of huge rural areas and illiterate people, radio and television remains the most available and widespread ICTs, with radio in the first place as primary communication medium).Several speakers, representing different regions and various professional communities will share their specific realities and approaches and also deal with universal challenges, such as

Contact Us May I take this opportunity to congratulate the Hansard Society on its 60th anniversary. Since 1944, the Society has upheld the foundations of democracy and parliamentary government and as it celebrates its 60th year, we should recognise that achievement. On its foundation, the very concept of democracy itself was under threat and it is a tribute to the Hansard Society that on its anniversary, parliamentary democracy remains as strong as ever. Issues for Investigation: Public Service Broadcasting and Citizenship Wednesday, March 24, 2004 Public Service Broadcasting and Citizenship There are public service broadcasting obligations on the BBC , Channels 3, 4 and 5 and . The Commission is considering how public service broadcasting may operate in the future and the place in public service broadcasting of political, and in particular parliamentary, coverage in light of the current Ofcom review of public service broadcasting and the BBC Charter Review.

The Commission will also consider how Parliament should be supporting the political literacy strand of citizenship education.

Relevant Publications The Response To The Government Green Paper On Broadcasting. Introduction Public Service Broadcasting Broadcasting Structures Organisation of R.T.E. Broadcasting Services ... Conclusion Public Service Broadcasting. Traditional assumptions about Public Service Broadcasting have been outstripped by events in recent years. No longer can this arena be seen as the sole preserve of R.T.E. As has been demonstrated increasingly by experience, where the commitment exists, independent I.R.T.C.-licensed stations play a significant public service broadcasting role within the State. Not all of R.T.E.'s programming conforms to the public service model. Similarly, many independent stations carry programming that is not purely driven by commercial considerations. In attempting to define public service broadcasting, therefore, it is necessary to look at programme content and intention, rather than at the organisation which operates the station. Public service broadcasting is not necessarily non-commercial. In Ireland, both R.T.E. and I.R.T.C.-licensed stations have frequently shown that public service broadcasting can achieve high listenership figures and commercial success. However, there is a considerable area of broadcasting of a public service nature in which costs are extremely high and where listenership is likely to be specialist or otherwise limited. For instance, radio documentaries fall into the category of programmes which can be problematic to make and also time-consuming, costly and therefore, difficult for programme directors to justify. But the value of any documentary can and should be measured according to a range of other criteria: its historical, archival, educational and inspirational qualities among them.

Political Economy Public Service Broadcasting in the Age of Information Capitalism Author: Ruth Elizabeth Tomaselli Place: Johannesburg Date: 1989 Published: Communicare Communicare This paper looks at two contemporary pheno­mena: information capitalism, and public service broadcasting. The crux of the paper is the question whether the ideal of public service broadcasting can survive the new technological and economic arrangements impinging on broadcasting; and secondly, whether the public service ethos is worth saving, in view of all the shortcomings and inherent contradictions within the system. To answer these questions, we need to clarify what we mean by technological revo­lution, or, what I feel is more appropriately referred to as "information capitalism". The paper will focus on what I see to be some of the key cultural, ideological and political questions thrown up by this new order, and how these changes may affect the present and future systems of broadcasting regula­tions and programme content. The paper also looks at what is meant by public service broadcasting, and how the concept has been applied in the South Afri­can context. It outlines some of the main crises to have bedevilled the system interna­tionally, and focuses particularly on the somewhat spurious claim that public service broadcasting is politically neutral and non-aligned.

News News Archive News Cuttings Press Centre ... Contact Us Search News The Future of Public Service Broadcasting 14 September 2001 New research published New research published The future of public service broadcasting, the effects of commercial pressures on the BBC and the prominence of fair trading concerns are the subject of new research published this week. The research is extremely timely as it addresses important issues raised by the government's announcement yesterday (Thursday 13 Septembr 2001) that it will allow the BBC to develop a number of new digital services for television and radio. Dr Georgina Born from the University's Faculty of Social and Political Sciences and Tony Prosser, the John Millar Professor of Law at Glasgow University, argue that public service broadcasting remains vital in this new technological age. The article, which appears in this month's Modern Law Review, describes the European Community constraints on public service broadcasting and the need for a clearer contemporary definition of this type of broadcasting in order to strengthen it for the digital era. "There is no definition of public service broadcasting currently provided in UK law," said Dr Born. "Our study develops new bases for a redefinition of public service broadcasting centred on principles of citizenship, universality and quality in relation to services and output. Each of these principles is elaborated and updated for contemporary conditions.

Public Service Broadcasting in Europe Concern for public service broadcasting (PSB) by the European institutions materialised during September 1996 in two new initiatives. On 11 September the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe adopted Recommendation No. R (96) 10 on the Guarantee of the Independence of Public Service Broadcasting. A few days later, on 19 September, the European Parliament adopted a Resolution on the role of public service television in the multi-media society. Both discuss the role and the future of PSB using different rationales (freedom of expression, and information versus culture). The overall guidelines and recommendations are however rather similar. The Council of Europe and Public Sector Broadcasting The Context Recommendation on the Guarantee of the Independence of Public Service Broadcasting The European Parliament and Public Sector Broadcasting The Tongue Report excluding any harmonisation of the laws and regulations of the Member States". Resolution on the role of public service television in the multi-media society Similar demands regarding the future of PSB are made of national governments.Moreover Article 48 calls on Member States "to provide reserved channels and carry rules for PSB channels in any future digital terrestrial, cable or satellite broadcasting regime" and Article 52 seeks "to oblige PSBs to provide high quality training in all audio-visual mediums and skills to personnel" with regard to the future. PSBs should make further efforts to carry out their duty, "which will help to build a European and democratic public sphere" (Article 23) and to strenghten their efforts to become fully independent (Article 33). They should also invest in intra- European co-production (Article 24) and in the area of new services, making use of the existing support programmes such as MEDIA 2 and the proposed European Guarantee Fund, which was recently approved by the European Parliament.

The nature of public service broadcasting The essential nature of public service broadcasting is frequently described in terms of the trinity espoused by the first Director-General of the BBC, Lord Reith - to inform, educate and entertain. It was a ringing declaration in its day, and was issued with the confidence that accompanied an unchallenged monopoly in an era of technological immaturity. No broadcaster today, public or commercial, is in a position to invoke the Reithian formula as its sole preserve. There are too many broadcasting services supplying elements of information, education and entertainment to various sectors of the audience for such a claim to be credible. What is clear, though, is that there is a widespread approval and desire for broadcasting whose defining characteristics are not determined by market or commercial conditions alone. No discussion about the roles of public and commercial broadcasting proceeds very far before someone demands a definition of public service broadcasting. Sometimes this call for clarity is genuine and disinterested. But frequently it is the opening shot in a campaign to reduce the scope and ultimately the re s o u rces of public service broadcasting: the definition that is being sought is limiting and restrictive, rather than clarifying and liberating. Nowhere in our national law or in the policy and legislation of the European Union is there a definition of public service broadcasting, or of what constitutes a public service programme, although the question is endlessly debated. What we do have in law is a set of obligations prescribed as appropriate for television and radio channels with a public service character. This recognises the reality that the question to be asked is not "what is the definition of public service broadcasting?" but rather "what are the goals of public policy in broadcasting in this society now and in the medium term ? " The question is no longer one of definition. Instead, it is about the appropriate scope for public policy to intervene in the broadcasting market. The intervention takes the form of specifying obligations to the public interest and conferring them on particular broadcasting organisations.

Summary: On this week's Lingua Franca: Public Service Broadcasting: what it is, what it's not... In the last few weeks, two controversial stories about the ABC have been leaked to the press that have raised widespread alarm about the ABC's Independance as a Public Service Broadcaster, about its Accountability, and about its Commercialization. Former ABC Chairman Mark Armstrong, Director of the Network Insight Group at RMIT university, explains the realities behind these abstractions we use to discuss the ABC. Details or Transcript: Theme Jill Kitson: Welcome to Lingua Franca. I'm Jill Kitson. This week: public service broadcasting: what it is, what it's not. Former ABC Chairman Mark Armstrong, Director of the Network Insight Group at RMIT University, on the realities behind the abstractions we use to discuss the ABC. In the last few weeks, two controversial stories about the ABC have been leaked to the press. In January, it was reported that the Minister for Communications, Richard Alston, had written to the ABC's Chairman, Donald McDonald, specifying certain performance goals the ABC should commit itself to as the quid pro quo for government funding over the next three years. It's what the government calls accountability. This past week came the news of ABC Managing Director Brian Johns's negotiations with Telstra to provide ABC online content to Telstra.com for an annual fee of $13.5-million over the next five years. To some people, a commercial deal like this equals commercialisation of the ABC.
