Yet more investigations against the Babe Channels. I say investigations rather than complaints as i truely believe that excessive compliance monitoring is now being carried out. This goes against Ofc@m's own regulatory principle to operate with a bias against intervention.
How we regulate
• Ofcom will always seek the least intrusive regulatory methods of achieving our objectives.
• Ofcom will strive to ensure that interventions are evidence-based, proportionate, consistent, accountable and transparent in both deliberation and outcome.
• Ofcom will regulate with a clearly articulated and publicly reviewed annual plan, with stated priorities.
Anyway the bad news is that a further three investigations will be carried out against Playboy as licensee.

Playboy are already under notice to ensure compliance since all licensee's were issued with new guidance late last year. Playboy are yet to attend a further meeting to discuss non-compliance and no doubt these three further investigations will be raised with the prospect now of a financial penalty.
