The structure and performance of the independent televisionproduction sector in the UK have been strongly affected by public policy interventions. Such interventions have introduced more competition andhave generally sought to strengthen the position of ‘indies’ by, forexample, raising levels of demand for their output amongst domesticvertically integrated broadcasters.
