London - ITV is to restore a 10 p.m. news bulletin as part of a package of measures to be introduced in the New Year, the Independent Television Commission said yesterday.
The bulletin will be broadcast Monday to Thursday and will be 20 minutes long.
The Friday night bulletin will follow the weekend night news schedule, the ITC confirmed.
In addition the ITC has agreed to grant ITV flexibility in weekday news scheduling which will allow feature-length drama, films, live sport and entertainment events to be screened uninterrupted by advertising.
