大象传媒 Governors review: licence fee bid

锘縏he 大象传媒 published its case for the next licence fee settlement in October 2005.

In January 2006, the Board of Governors commissioned Professor Patrick Barwise of the London Business School to carry out further research to provide them with an independent and up-to-date view of what licence fee payers think about the 大象传媒's proposals for the next Charter period. The Governors wanted to satisfy themselves that they had the best understanding of licence fee payers' opinions before the final stages of the licence fee settlement process.

Furthermore, the Governors wanted to understand licence fee payers' reaction to the Government's plan to fund targeted help via the licence fee.

The following report is entirely the work of Professor Patrick Barwise. His comments, conclusions and recommendations are his own and should be attributed only to him. See below for a short biography of Professor Barwise.
