So moving forward (to use the jargon) as part of this Agenda can we suggest as a first step DCMS implement promptly, Clive's very sensible idea. Then after a brief interval other Departments can be "encouraged" to follow suit.

I know the CMA has tried several times before to persuade them that they should pay for PSA's on Community stations but this has simply been ignored. CR stations reach parts of the communities that other stations do not and surely the Government would always want to maximise their messages re vaccinations, fire risks or registering to vote etc?
