Statements of Programme Policy 2007/2008

The BBC Statements of Programme Policy 2007/2008 will be published in the next day or two. I've had a sneak preview and it seems that rather than use my suggested wording (blog 18 March 2007) the Director-General preferred to amend the next paragraph to make it clear that the BBC must be inclusive.

I had pointed the DG to several instances of anti-gay discrimination which have occurred in the past, and so it will be interesting to see if the BBC keep to this commitment.
