Mr. Steve Carson:

We are absolutely committed to the 25% spend. That is our position and we would like to go further. The creative work already done with independent producers underpins our services and schedules. It is a very important part of our role. We see ourselves as a catalyst and enabler for that wider sector. The co-operation with the independent sector goes back to the original 1993 Act. As the Senator may know, I run an independent company. It is a very important part of what we do across the genre.
