Part 6: Miscellaneous Section 93: On-demand programme services: accessibility for people with disabilities
This section introduces into Part 4A of the 2003 Act new sections 368BC, 368BD and 368CA, allowing the Secretary of State to require providers of VoD services to make their services more accessible to people with disabilities affecting their sight or hearing or both.
	New section 368BC provides the Secretary of State with the power, by regulations, to impose requirements on providers of on-demand programme services, including designated levels of subtitling, audio-description and sign language in programmes. Subsections (4) to (6) set out the steps that must be taken before regulations are made under this section.
	New section 368BD provides for the enforcement of the requirements set by regulations made under new section 368BC. Failure to comply with an enforcement notice issued under this section is itself grounds for the imposition of a financial penalty under section 368J of the 2003 Act.
	New section 368CA requires Ofcom to draw up and periodically review and revise a code giving guidance to on-demand programme services on steps to be taken to meet the requirements set by regulations under section 368BC, as well as other steps to ensure their services are made progressively more accessible for people with disabilities affecting their sight or hearing or both.
