Mmm. The BBC Board committee that used to monitor "Fair Trading" is no more, subsumed into Audit and Risk.
From next year, journalists paid for by the World Service will provide most of the overnight network news bulletins on BBC radio. Tim Davie wants the Government to fund the whole of the World Service. I suspect commercial radio companies may make mischief with this.
Meanwhile, to save paying for other staff doing night shifts at Broadcasting House, Radio 4 loses 'News Briefing'. The online site will be kept going by hiring journalists in Sydney, presumably with special expertise in dash-cam footage, and video clips of animals doing funny things.
