Yes it is the start Graham

OK so here is the latest clause

5.3 Stimulating creativity and cultural excellence

BBC Local Radio should contribute to this purpose amongst its audience. It should
provide opportunities for new and emerging musicians from the local area and
support local arts and music events by providing event information.

Music output should be mainstream in peaktime and include specialist in off-peak
hours. Specialist music should be appropriate to the area. Current and recent chart
hits should represent no more than 15% of weekly music output.

BBC Local Radio stations should take advantage of their structure – small teams and
no formal commissioning structure - to act as a test bed for new production ideas
and ways of working, and for developing new talent.



So they are obviously not living up to their word.
