Value for money. Auditing public broadcasting performance in Sweden

Hultén, Olof (author)

Štiri švedske nacionalne radijske in televizijske postaje morajo po letu 1997 izpolniti parlamentarno zahtevo, da vsako leto javno predstavijo poročila o izpolnjevanju koncesijskih obveznosti. Neodvisna komisija za radio in televizijo recenzira poročila, da bi zagotovila, da ustrezajo zahtevam končnih naslovnikov: vlade in javnosti. Namen poročil je dvojen: spodbuditi javno razpravo o javni radioteleviziji in služiti politični evalvaciji njenih storitev. Dosedanja poročila niso sprožila veliko javne razprave. Prvo uporabo v parlamentu bodo doživela, ko bo posebni odbor pripravil poročilo parlamentu o prihodnosti javne radiotelevizije za naslednje koncesijsko obdobje po letu 2006.

Abstract

The four national broadcasters in Sweden are required by Parliament to presentannually self audited public service reports, on how they fulfil their chartered service obligations. Reports have been submitted since 1997. An independent Broadcasting Commission reviews the reports to make sure they meetthe needs of the ultimate recipients of the report: the government and the public at large. The purpose of the self-audited performance reports is two-fold: to stimulate public discussion about public service broadcasting and to be useful in the political evaluation of these services. The reports published so far have not led to much public discussion. Its first Parliamentary use will come when a special committee prepares a report to Parliament on the future of public service broadcasting for the next charter period from 2006.
