UK public broadcaster the BBC has failed to plan for switching to internet-based media and move away from traditional broadcasting at a \u201cmore wholesale, strategic level,\u201d according to a public spending watchdog.<\/p>\n

The UK’s National Audit Office said the boss of the hundred-year-old broadcaster had set out a vision for where it should aim to be by the 2030s, and \u201cthat the BBC would be active in future in planning for the switching off of traditional broadcasting.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe BBC has, however, to date only conducted limited work planning out scenarios in which it could potentially move away from traditional broadcasting at a more wholesale, strategic level. Nor has it set out those older services which it will protect, or the wider implications of removing certain broadcast channels for access by disabled audiences and other groups at risk of being digitally excluded,\u201d the NAO said in a report<\/a> this week.<\/p>\n
