UK TV audio description - Last chance..

[Brian Gaff]

Dear Campaign Supporter,

Ofcom's consultation on whether to double audio description to 20 per
cent on digital TV closes next Thursday at 5pm. We've been campaigning
for Ofcom to increase AD for around five years and this is our only
opportunity for the foreseeable future to do that.

Ofcom have provided three options for the future of AD:

1. Remain at 10 per cent
2. Increase to 20 per cent on all digital channels 3. Increase to 20 per
cent on only 10 channels (the public service broadcasters - i.e. all BBC
channels, ITV1, C4, Five and S4C)

You don't need to write a long letter - you can phone or email Ofcom
telling them which option you would like them to recommend and what AD
means to you.

You will need to tell them whether you want your name published with
your response

Please do pass this on to any friends, family and colleagues.
