Public Service Content On Tv

Freely, a new streaming service backed by the BBC, ITV, will be debuting on Amazon Fire televisions. The tie-up will help take content from the four public broadcasters - which are required by UK law to offer programming beneficial to the public interest - to more British households, through smart TVs using Amazon's popular Fire operating system.

Granting relaxations, the government on Monday said the 30-minute daily obligatory public service broadcast by private broadcasters could be embedded in programmes telecast by other television channels.
