Scottish Broadcasting Commission Publishes Final Report

The Scottish Broadcasting Commission has published its vision and strategy for the future of the industry, with plans to transform the country's creative economy and to improve the programmes and services available to audiences in Scotland.
In its final report - Platform for Success - the Commission makes 22 recommendations for strengthening the industry, arguing that broadcasting in Scotland can flourish and create world-class content for worldwide audiences.
The unanimous recommendations build upon the foundations of creative talent, the appetite and demands from the viewing public, and the investment and new commitments from the BBC and Channel 4 announced during the timespan of the independent Commission's investigation into the state of the industry in Scotland.
