Ofcom today published the Terms of Reference for its Market Impact Assessment (MIA) of the BBC’s proposed Local Video service. The MIA will examine the likely impact of the service proposed by the BBC on similar and related products and services, examining in particular the extent to which the service might affect innovation and investment in the commercial sector.
The Local Video service would expand upon existing BBC Local websites on bbc.co.uk and focus on 60 areas, typically a county or conurbation, across the UK. It would create bespoke local video news, sport and weather to complement the BBC’s existing online provision.
The results of the MIA will be published alongside the BBC Trust’s Public Value Assessment on 18 November 2008.
The published Terms of Reference and Stakeholder Questions can be found on the Ofcom website at:
