To ask His Majesty's Government what is the timetable, including key milestones, for the renewal of the BBC Charter by 2027.

We are preparing for the upcoming Charter Review which we expect to launch later this year.

The current Charter sets out the steps that the Government must take during any Charter Review. This includes consulting with the BBC, Ofcom, Devolved Governments and Parliament. We will be seeking views from the public through a consultation before taking any decisions regarding the future of the BBC. The public consultation will ensure that members of the public are able to share their views and inform our policy-making. There will also be the opportunity for Parliamentary debate before the final Charter is published.
