style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Calibri;color:black'>Without risking
repeating what's been said already, the message here from ofcom is quite clear:
swearing on the radio is not acceptable. However, you will notice that in 2 of
the cases the matter was seen as 'resolved' due to the efforts made by the station
to ensure compliance. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Calibri;color:black'>Those looking for
conspiracy will no doubt see it here and complain that community radio is been
beaten with a stick and those who get paid to do radio have escaped. But the
point to see here is actually that if you have robust and appropriate
compliance systems ofcom will recognise what you've done. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=black face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Calibri;color:black'>Part of the deal of
taking on a licence is you follow the rules and those rules are the same for
everyone. Obviously, by its nature community radio takes more risks. Capital
will only play around 140 different tracks at any one time and it those are
picked very carefully indeed by their music team. Community stations will play
much more than that and so the risks are increased of playing something a bit
naughty. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=black face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Calibri;color:black'>You could tackle this
in one of a number of ways. Insist only tracks on a playout system are played
and these can only be added by a single person… or presenters can add
tracks but won't be released for automation until they've listened to and
approved. Presenter contracts emphasising their compliance role may also be a
useful check. You may of course be of the view that the important part of what
you do as a station is what the presenters say and where they come from –
not the music they play – and so a locked-down schedule of music is not
only useful but sometimes desirable. As you will note that the live swearing on
Radio 1 escaped sanction because they had audit-able evidence of the steps they
took to ensure compliance. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=black face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Calibri;color:black'>This goes back to my
often made point in this field that if you make the effort to ensure compliance
and something goes wrong then ofcom will be more understanding. Training and
development is at the heart of this. This may be time consuming and generally a
pain but it's what we're all about – or at least it should be. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style='font-size:12.0pt;color:black'>Hardly anyone had previous radio
experience before we setup six years ago, but we had lots of community
development experience. We setup primarily to do community development.
In that context, we're not going to be negligent and we're not going to
ignore what we have signed up to do. But we are going to be realistic
about what volunteers can be expected to do, and what they can achieve and
deliver in the absence of full-time hands-on management. From the
conversations I've had, people from the more commercial and possibly top down
model really struggle with this approach. But it works for us, it works
for our community, and from what Ofcom have said having monitored our output,
it works for them as well.<u1:p></u1:p><o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=black face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:black'>So getting back to the original point, a
regulatory system which relies upon stations having fully resourced staff and
management teams presents extra challenges for volunteer run stations such as
ours. If, at the meeting in October, Ofcom seem inclined to move towards
increased regulation or expectations, I would ask that the Jaqui and the CMA
represent the difficulties that this will pose for stations operating with
minimal resources.<u1:p></u1:p><o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
