Hello Delyth. It was good to see you the other week to discuss Ofcom’s work in Wales. You’ll remember we briefly discussed the Channel 4 licence, and so I wanted to let you know that today we have published a statement on the relicensing of Channel 4 Corporation (‘C4C’) to provide the Channel 4 service for another ten years. Furthermore, this is the commitment from C4C to strive to reach that figure by 2028 in their letter also published today.

Ofcom is the UK’s regulator for the communications services that we use and rely on each day. We regulate broadband, home phone and mobile services, TV, radio and video on demand services, oversee the universal postal service, look after the airwaves used by wireless devices, and help make online services safer for the people who use them. |
The link below sets out C4's latest announcement on its intentions towards the Nations and Regions going forward and which members may also find helpful.

If you would find it helpful to talk through this in any further detail I’d be happy to do so.
Best wishes, Phil
