Dear AVMS Stakeholder

The DCMS consultation on implementing the Audiovisual Media Services
Directive in the UK is published today.

The consultation focuses on three specific areas which are likely to
require changes to UK law.  These are:

           o 'co-regulating' video-on-demand services;
           o product placement; and,
           o regulating satellite TV channels from outside the EU which
             uplink from the UK.

The consultation document can be found on the DCMS website at:
_http://www.culture.gov.uk/reference_library/consultations/5309.aspx_

Please send your consultation responses to:
_avmsconsultation at culture.gsi.gov.uk_
<mailto:avmsconsultation at culture.gsi.gov.uk> by Friday 31 October.

We will be holding an AVMS Stakeholder meeting to discuss the issues in
more detail.  This will take place on Friday 26 September, 2-4pm at DCMS
(2-4 Cockspur Street, London SW1Y 5DH).  If you would like to register
for this meeting, please reply to this email.

Best regards,
