Bectu/Pact joint statement on 2023 TV Drama Agreement
8 December 2023
Pact and Bectu have issued joint guidance on six terms contained in the 2023 TV/SVOD Drama Agreement. This guidance recognises that the drafting of some clauses in the agreement had created some uncertainty, and outlines the mutually agreed interpretation of such clauses and how they should be applied.
Both bodies committed in the agreement to meet on a six-monthly basis in order to discuss its implementation and to try to resolve any misunderstandings. This guidance is the result of the first such meeting. The next meeting will take place in January 2024.
