BBC Wales’ commitment to Welsh Language programming and its contribution to S4C is an extremely important part of the Channel’s schedule. We are obviously disappointed at this proposed cut in investment by the BBC in Welsh language programming which comes at a particularly difficult time for S4C. The reduction in investment announced by BBC Wales and the way that it would impact upon content for S4C will be the subject of ongoing discussions between the two broadcasters within the framework of their existing Strategic Partnership Agreement.
