The Audience Council Scotland (ACS) was created upon establishment of the BBC Trust in January 2007. It replaced the Broadcasting Council for Scotland which had many responsibilities the present Council now has. ACS plays a key role helping the BBC Trust understand the needs, interests and concerns of audiences in Scotland. The ACS is chaired by the BBC Trustee for Scotland and consists of 11 members who bring a range of interests, experience and perspectives to the work of representing the audience in Scotland. The Council meets at least 11 times per year to assess and advise the BBC Trust. The ACS holds a number of public engagement events throughout the year across the country and meets monthly to discuss issues concerning audiences. ACS engages with audiences in a range of ways, it monitors comments made by audiences to the BBC, reviews audience research, and may commission its own, ACS engages directly with members of the audience via focus groups and a range of audience events. Recent examples of the ACS advising the BBC Trust were the ''Nations and Regions Impartiality Review''〔Impartiality Review ()〕 and the launch of BBC Alba.〔Audience Council Scotland Submissions ()〕 The Council reports to the BBC Trust monthly on issues of concern to licence payers in Scotland and presents an annual report to the BBC Trust. The ACS monitors the performance of the BBC against the Public Purposes set for it in the Royal Charter and Agreement. The ACS also publishes an account of its activities and assessment in the BBC Scotland Annual Review〔BBC Scotland Annual Review ()〕 There are other councils for the other three nations in Wales, England and Northern Ireland. == Members == *Jeremy Peat Chair and National Trustee for Scotland (reappointed 2008) *Robert Beveridge *Douglas Chalmers *James Cohen *Beth Culshaw *David Garrick *Patricia Jordan *Eleanor Logan *Sir Neil McIntosh *Rak Nandwani *Callum Thomson *Lesley Thomson 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Audience Council Scotland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
