Editorial Guidelines in Full

Editorial Integrity & Independence

Promotional material/stories supplied by outside bodies

We must select and cover stories for our own independent editorial reasons.

We must be on our guard for "spin" from outside bodies and commercial companies who may also try and place stories across our services in a short space of time.

We must ensure that when a product, service or organisation is named in a news report or factual content it is clearly editorially justified.
