This bill proposes to close down the Broadcasting Standards Authority. This means the Authority would no longer handle complaints about broadcasting standards or issue decisions. Its legal powers and responsibilities would end. The bill also removes all references to the Authority from other laws.
Submissions open once a bill reaches the select committee stage and the committee calls for them. In the meantime, you can write to your local MP about it.
