Feargal Sharkey, CEO UK Music, said:
“UK Music is delighted by today’s announcement by the BBC Trust, that the case has not been made for the closure of BBC 6 Music. However it does not represent a total reprieve - the Sword of Damocles has only been put on ice. We would still urge Mark Thompson and the BBC Executive to acknowledge the Trust’s conclusions, to recognise 6 Music’s unique role in supporting this country’s musical talent and to commit to the station’s long term future.
“We were also surprised by, but welcome, the Trust’s commitment to conducting a broad ranging and far reaching review of digital radio, and look forward to inputting into that process in coming months.”
