Audience Council for Nothern Ireland

The BBC Trust has published its review of the BBC News Channel and BBC Parliament. The review aimed to assess how well the channels are performing for audiences and to determine their future direction. It was informed by a public consultation, advice from the four BBC Audience Councils and audience research.

The Trust has found that the services are of high quality, provide good value for money and are meeting audiences' expectations.

The Trust has urged BBC management to build on this success and keep the channels' content and style distinctive, particularly given the challenge of delivering the savings needed under the new licence fee settlement.
