Regulatory bodies

The Office Of Communication or Ofcom is the regulator for the communications services. Ofcom makes sure people get the best from their broadband, home phone and mobile services, as well as keeping an eye on TV and radio. 

They make sure that people are satisfied with what they see on TV and hear on the Radio. And it that there is an accurate representation of what is portrayed online.

Ofcom registers people who complain to Ofcom and check if any rules might have been broken. If they decide the complain doesn't raise issues warranting further investigation, they will close the complaint and publish a record of this in Ofcom's Broadcast and On Demand Bulletin, which is published every fortnight. 

Ofcom is independent. Ofcom is funded by fees from industry for regulating broadcasting and communications networks, and grant-in-aid from the UK Government for undertaking concurrent competition regulation and managing radio spectrum.
