Ofcom today published its submission to the first seminar of the Convergence Think Tank.
The Convergence Think Tank (CTT) was created by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport in conjunction with the Department of Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform. Led by Government, and supported by Ofcom and a panel of experts, the CTT will examine convergence - its impact on markets, consumers and citizens and potential policy and legislative implications.
The submission draws on Ofcom's existing research and policy work to understand convergence, its drivers, and its implications. The paper highlights key themes of convergence in advance of the first CTT seminar today. Its purpose is to assist stakeholder understanding of convergence and promote discussion at the CTT seminar.
What is convergence?

Audio Description (AD) is a free TV service available on over 70 channels for people who have difficulty seeing what is happening on the screen. Like a narrator telling a story, an additional commentary describes body language, expressions and movements - allowing you to hear what you might not be able to see, so you don't miss a thing.
