Ofcom has today updated Section Nine of its Broadcasting Code in light of the Gambling Act 2005 coming into effect on 1 September 2007. The amendments ensure that the sponsorship rules set out in the Code are in line with the new Broadcast Committee of Advertising Practice (BCAP) rules for gambling advertisements on television and radio.
Ofcom will also be updating guidance to accompany Section Nine of its Code shortly. The updated version of the Broadcasting Code can be found on the Ofcom website at:
