Meanings of unitary board in English

The BBC Trust is to be replaced with new unitary board.

This would create a unitary board and hand regulation over to Ofcom, which already does a similar job for other broadcasters.

Which, if it transpires, may be the first test of Ofcom regulation, not to mention the will of the BBC's unitary board.

Hall said on Wednesday that a unitary board would offer "clearer lines of accountability", with a non-executive chair responsible for governance.

He said he was appointing five members of the Central Bank commission, which was the unitary board with responsibility for the bank's activities and functions.

The BBC will be run by a new unitary board, instead of its old trust, six of whose members will be appointed by the government.
