Part 4: On-demand programme services Section 368HA Meaning of Tier 1 service
Section 368HA defines Tier 1 services. These will be on-demand programme services used by public service broadcasters, other than the BBC, to contribute to fulfilling their public service requirements, and any other on-demand services or non-UK on-demand services specified in regulation made by the Secretary of State under section 368HB.
	On-demand programme services provided by the BBC are excluded from the specification at subsection (2) including public service broadcasters fulfilling their public service remits within Tier 1. This means that regulation of the BBC’s on-demand programme services will remain consistent with the existing system whereby regulatory obligations are set out in the Charter and Framework Agreement rather than directly in legislation.
