We want your views on proposed changes to Ofcom’s duties and obligations
Last fetched 03 May 2026 · gov.uk
Detail
In Summer 2010, we analysed the Office of Communication’s (Ofcom’s) duties and powers so that we can:
- help reduce duplication and unnecessary spending
- increase efficiency, transparency and accountability
We want your views on the changes that our analysis identified, which are set out in this consultation document.
Annex A and B can be found at the end of the consultation document. Due to its length, we have published Annex C separately, which is a summary of existing legislation relevant to this consultation.
