BBC
statement on ITV Digital
"The
BBC is seeking to ensure that all the BBC's free-to-view channels
will continue to be available to all digital terrestrial viewers.
"As
a result, we are, as a matter of urgency, negotiating with the administrator,
to ensure full access to all the BBCs free-to-view channels
continues.
"The
BBC believes that there is still a future for the digital terrestrial
platform - where audiences get digital TV through their rooftop
aerials - and hopes the ITC and the Government will be able to resolve
its long term future, in the public interest, as soon as possible.
"We
will be broadcasting public information announcements on BBC ONE,
BBC TWO, BBC Choice, BBC FOUR and BBC News 24 to reassure DTT viewers
that they will continue to receive our channels."
