The two reports, with the Annual Report as the main document, will look as though they form a suite of documents. As set out above, the BBC may consider publishing as separate reports, one or two sections currently within the Annual Report. The Commissioning Report is an annual report which details the BBC’s commissioning and sector development activity across the year in TV and Radio. It is aimed primarily at producers and partners rather than members of the public. It is a data driven report which covers how we have met our Ofcom regulatory commitments, how we are meeting our strategic commitments around diversity, sustainability and production/commissioning across the UK, and our training initiatives and placements. The report is published around the same time as the BBC Annual Report and supporting documents. It is online only, and no print version is required.
