Guarantees demanded in BBC sell-off
Bectu has tabled demands for protection of staff in BBC Broadcast Ltd, a wholly-owned BBC subsidiary threatened with privatisation.
Included in the list are guarantees that conditions of service, job security, and pensions will all be protected if the company, which is responsible for playout of BBC TV programmes, is sold this summer.
The union's move comes in response to newspaper advertisements placed last week (March 4), inviting expressions of interest from prospective purchasers of the company, which has a 7-year contract with the BBC worth more than £100 million a year.
