Description

The North of Tyne Combined Authority (NTCA) is seeking to establish a multi-supplier, multi-category Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the delivery of Local Business Support Services within the North East area. The primary focus of the DPS will be delivery of business support activities, including those identified in the UKSPF Investment Plans prepared by each of the five accountable bodies (as listed below) and approved by UK Government on the 5th of December 2022; interventions are expected to be bespoke to regional need and designed to reflect the unique mix of assets, sectors and opportunities in the area. The NTCA and other Purchasers listed cannot guarantee the level and spend to be procured via this DPS. The total value of the DPS is expected to be approximately £30m. This DPS will not be the only route to market used by the NTCA and other Purchases listed for delivery of business support services. They reserve the right to select alternative routes to market as required. \r
The DPS is being established for use by NTCA and the local councils of County Durham, Gateshead, Newcastle, North Tyneside, Northumberland, South Tyneside, and Sunderland. The DPS will also be available for use in the future by the proposed new combined authority operating in the North East area (see further details here: North East devolution deal - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk). The DPS is being procured on behalf of NTCA by North Tyneside Council's procurement team. For the avoidance of doubt however, NTCA are the Contracting Authority for the purposes of this procurement process.

Review of Certain Regulatory Policies For Online Audiovisual Services

Some major English-speaking territories (e.g., Australia, Canada, New Zealand) and many European countries (e.g. Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Spain) have brought in, are introducing or are considering regulation of online audiovisual services, mainly Video on Demand (VOD) but sometimes also Video Sharing Platforms (VSPs), with the aim to support their national screen industries, especially independent sectors. The measures include investment obligations, levies, rules around rights retention as well as quotas. Within the European Union and the European Economic Area, such interventions are governed by the Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD). Ahead of the ex-post evaluation of the AVMSD due from the European Commission by December 2026, there is already debate around the current set of interventions that are allowed by the AVMSD and some EU stakeholders will be pushing for revisions to the AVMSD interventions (these might include, e.g. investment obligations, levies, quotas and rights retention as well as whether these parts of the Directive should be extended to VSPs). There are some research reports providing either an overarching view of policy options and drivers in this sphere (such as Film i Väst reports) or a limited release of early data (as in the case of the Centre National du Cinéma et de l'image Animée (CNC)), but there is no comprehensive analysis of either the rationale for these measures or their initial impacts on the health of the wider screen ecosystem in the respective territories. The principal focus of this research is the impact of regulation of online services, including VOD (both Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) and Ad-supported Video on Demand (AVOD) platforms), and video sharing platforms such as YouTube and TikTok where relevant. For each country studied, we want to understand the impacts on the audiovisual ecosystem as a whole, and local independent film and TV production in particular (as strengthening the latter is often the objective of such interventions), audiences and cultural diversity. The study should also include a counterfactual which considers these impacts in a territory (outside the UK) in which such measures have not been introduced. Additional information: To take part in this tender, please visit our website, at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/bfi/aspx/Tenders/Current , where you will need to register, if you haven't already, and express an interest in this opportunity to access the relevant documents.
