23 (2) S.C. 128\02 The Commission shall consist of – (a) a chairman and a deputy chairman appointed by the Secretary of State; and (b) such number of other members appointed by the Secretary of State, not being less than eight nor more than ten, as he may from time to time determine.” (underlining is mine) This provision is almost identical with section 4 of the Act. Section 83(2) gives the Secretary of State for Culture Media and Sport the same powers in respect of the Radio Authority. Schedule 1 of the same Act provides the details of the Commission. Conditions militating against appointment to the Commission relate to connection with the BBC, the Broadcasting Complaints Commission, the Broadcasting Standards Council, and financial or business connection with the broadcasting industry. Outside that, the Secretary of State is required to ensure that the special interests of Wales and Scotland are represented on the Commission. The remuneration of members of the Commission is determined by the Secretary of State, as is also the borrowing powers of the Commission. The same powers also relate to the Radio Authority and are spelt out in Schedule 8. The British Act makes the Commission and the Radio Authority the licensing authorities for non-state television and radio respectively as they do not cover the BBC.
