Independent producers making TV and radio programmes for the BBC will be required to take its “Safeguarding Trust” course, under new guidelines published today.

According to Broadcast, the corporation has tightened up its compliance rules in the wake of the series of “editorial breaches” unearthed last year, which included incorrect documentary editing and faked phone-ins.
