Removing the rules around local radio

For local services, this means that all local commercial radio stations could
be owned by one operator in a local area, alongside the BBC local radio
services; and Liberalising the local cross media ownership rules so that the
only restriction is on ownership of all three of: a local radio station; local
newspapers (with 50% or more of the local market share); and a regional Channel

Trust - Question Time appeal outcome
” This
carries the clear implication that the Trust should not attempt to take upon
itself the role of editor-in-chief. In practice this means not intervening in
editorial decisions relating to individual programmes before they have been broadcast.”
/ “To do so would undermine the editorial independence of the BBC – something
we are strongly committed to preserve. Until it is broadcast, the content of
Thursday’s Question Time is entirely a matter for the Director-General acting
as the BBC’s editor-in-chief, and we have impressed upon him his duty to ensure
the programme is fully compliant with the law and with the BBC’s published
editorial guidelines. Once the programme has been broadcast, any member of the
public who feels it breaches the guidelines can make use of the established BBC
complaints process to make their case."”

（一部抜粋）Trust concerns: …“The proposed public service
activities were of considerable strategic significance but it was not clear
whether they were the best way of increasing the public value of iPlayer for
the benefit of licence fee payers. This issue ought to be re-assessed in the
course of the broader ongoing strategic review, in which the BBC Trust and
Executive are looking at the post-switchover world of 2012 and beyond to
develop a clear strategy for what kind of BBC could best serve the public, and
best support the media sector” ; ” The degree of co-operation envisaged between
major UK content producers would need to be looked at in terms of its possible
effects on competition.”

adopts legislative proposals to strengthen financial supervision in Europe
Today's legislative proposals address those
weaknesses both at the macro- and micro-prudential supervision levels by
creating:
a European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB) to monitor and
assess risks to the stability of the financial system as a whole
("macro-prudential supervision"). The ESRB will provide early warning
of systemic risks that may be building up and, where necessary, recommendations
for action to deal with these risks.
a European System of Financial Supervisors (ESFS)
for the supervision of individual financial institutions
("micro-prudential supervision"), consisting of a network of national
financial supervisors working in tandem with new European Supervisory
Authorities, created by the transformation of existing Committees for the
banking securities and insurance and occupational pensions sectors. There will
be a European Banking Authority (EBA), a European Insurance and Occupational
Pensions Authority (EIOPA), and a European Securities and Markets Authority
(ESMA).

programme has been sponsored;
Commercial sponsorship of BBC on-air events will not
continue, although non-commercial sponsorship of on-air events can continue,
subject to the new policy and guidance;
Off-air BBC events can be commercially sponsored,
but are nevertheless subject to the BBC’s Editorial Guidelines.

Commission welcomes Court judgment in Akzo Nobel case [Case C-97/08 P Akzo v Commission]
親子会社による”a single entity”の立証水準
/ ”The Court of Justice held that Community competition law refers to the
activities of "undertakings". Such economic units may consist of
several legal persons. It is, however, the undertaking that has committed the
infringement and that incurs responsibility,
even if the Decision has to be addressed to legal entities. Thus, the fact that
a parent company and its subsidiary constitute a single undertaking enables the Commission to address a decision
imposing fines to the parent company, without having to establish the personal
involvement of the latter in the infringement. To hold the parent company
liable it is sufficient for the
Commission to prove that the subsidiary is wholly owned by the parent company in order to create a rebuttable presumption
that the parent company exercises a decisive influence over the commercial
policy of the subsidiary.”

Chairman's
open letter to licence fee payers
（議論の整理）Recent
debate has focused on two particular arguments. The first is that the
BBC should be much smaller and should scale back its involvement in areas such
as providing news for free on the internet. The second, as proposed by the
Government, is that the licence fee should be shared and that an element should
pass to a range of commercial media companies - initially regional news
providers - breaking the historic funding link between the BBC and its
audiences.／（方向性）But we also acknowledge that as digital change
accelerates, so the need to reshape the BBC on behalf of the public becomes
more pressing. That’s why, before the summer break, the Trust agreed with
the Director General that he should conduct a thorough review of what the BBC
should concentrate on in the future. In particular we want this to consider
whether the BBC is the right size and is operating within the right boundaries,
what its role should be in a fully digital world, how it can support the wider
industry and
