The following extract from a House of Commons debate this week:
Greg Clark (Tunbridge Wells, Conservative) Link to this Hansard source
"Has my hon. Friend had time to look at the online streamed regional news coverage from the BBC, and to compare that with what ITV offers? If he does so, he will see that the ITV offering is vastly superior, and that the BBC regional news broadcast online is primitive—despite the fact that many millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are going into the BBC product. Does that not exemplify the need for caution in agreeing to greater sums for digital services?"
Refering to the Narrowstep powered ITV Local service, of course.
