Jowell orders independent production review
Culture secretary Tessa Jowell has ordered an investigation into broadcasters' treatment of independent television producers.
Former ITV chief Richard Eyre and Guardian Media Group chief executive Bob Phillis are to take part.
Ms Jowell set up the inquiry after independent producers complained they were not being given a fair deal by broadcasters.
The other members of the five-strong panel will be Sir Howard Stringer, the chairman and CEO of the Sony Corporation of America; Anne Bulford, the director of finance and business affairs at the Royal Opera House; and Bill Robinson, a partner at PricewaterhouseCoopers.
The panel will assist the independent television commission, which is conducting the review.
Mr Phillis, who will chair the panel, said: "Our panel has a wealth of expertise and experience from the international programme supply and commissioning market.
"We look forward to the challenging task ahead of assisting the ITC in its programme supply review and other related matters."
