Pressbof

The Press Standards Board of Finance (Pressbof), modelled on the self-regulatory system established by the advertising industry in 1974, is charged with raising a levy on the newspaper and periodical industries to finance the Press Complaints Commission. This arrangement ensures secure financial support for the PCC, while its complete independence is at the same time guaranteed by a majority of lay members, and is a further sign of the industry's commitment to effective self-regulation.
