(1)It shall be the duty of the IBA to prepare before the transfer date, in the case of each relevant programme contractor, a contract which—
(a)is expressed to be made between the nominated company and the contractor; and
(b)is to come into force in accordance with subsection (3) at such time (if any) as the contractor becomes the holder of a local licence by virtue of paragraph 1(1) in Part V of Schedule 11 to this Act; and
(c)makes provision in connection with the transmission, as from any such time, of the programmes included in the local service provided by the contractor (as the holder of such a licence), which may include provision for the transmission of those programmes by the nominated company.
(2)For the purposes of subsection (1) the IBA shall, after consultation with all the relevant programme contractors, draw up a number of different standard forms of contract, and each contract prepared by them under that subsection shall be in such one of those forms as they may determine after consultation with the relevant programme contractor concerned.
(3)Any contract prepared under subsection (1) shall by virtue of this subsection come into force, as a contract between the nominated company and the relevant programme contractor concerned, at any such time as is mentioned in paragraph (b) of that subsection and (subject to the provisions of the contract) shall continue in force for such period as is specified in it, being a period expiring not later than 31st December 1994.
(4)If—
(a)any contract prepared under subsection (1) has not yet come into force, and
(b)the nominated company and the relevant programme contractor concerned agree that it would be more appropriate for them to be parties to a contract which is in one of the other forms of contract drawn up as mentioned in subsection (2), and
(c)the nominated company prepares such a contract as is mentioned in subsection (1) which is in that other form,
subsection (3) shall have effect in relation to that contract as if it had been prepared by the IBA under subsection (1) (and accordingly shall not have effect in relation to the contract referred to in paragraph (a) above).
(5)The IBA shall be deemed to have had power to impose such requirements as have been imposed by them on the various local sound programme contractors with respect to the making of payments to the IBA for the purpose of enabling reductions to be made in relevant charges; and in this subsection “relevant charges” means charges made by the nominated company in connection with the transmission, during the period beginning with the transfer date and ending with 31st December 1994, of programmes which are included in local services falling within any description of such services determined by the IBA.
(6)The IBA shall have power, with the approval of the Secretary of State—
(a)to dispose of, or of an interest in, any relevant assets to a relevant programme contractor; and
(b)to do so on such terms and for such consideration as they may determine (whether or not any such consideration represents the market value of the assets).
(7)In this section—
“local licence” and “local service” have the same meaning as in Part III of this Act;
“local sound programme contractor” means a person who is a programme contractor by virtue of a contract for the provision of local sound broadcasts;
“relevant asset” means any equipment or other asset (of whatever description) which has been used or held by the IBA in connection with the transmission of local sound broadcasts;
“relevant programme contractor” means the programme contractor under a contract which, if effective immediately before the transfer date, would be a contract to which paragraph 2(1) in Part IV of Schedule 11 applied.
