  "text": "For those events listed in Group B in Appendix 1, the ITC will give its consent to exclusive live coverage of an event by a broadcaster providing a service in one category (the first service) if adequate provision has been made for secondary coverage by a broadcaster providing a service in the other category (the second service). The minimum which the ITC will consider to be adequate is where the second service has acquired rights for the provision of edited highlights or delayed coverage amounting to at least 10 % of the scheduled duration of the event (or the play in the event taking place on any on day), subject to a minimum of 30 minutes for an event (or the play in the event on any day) lasting an hour or more, whichever is the greater. For these purposes, where an event has a number of different components taking place concurrently the scheduled duration of the event is defined as the time elapsed between the scheduled beginning of the first component of the event on that day. The second service must have editorial control over the content and scheduling of the edited highlights or delayed coverage except that a restriction may be imposed that the second service shall not begin broadcasting the edited highlights or delayed coverage until a period has elapsed following the scheduled conclusion of the event (or the play in the event on any day). The maximum period which may be set is follows:\nFor an event scheduled to finish\nMaximum delay\nAfter midnight and up to 8 am\nEdited highlights or delayed coverage to start not later than 10.00 am.\nBetween 8.00 am and 8.30 pm\nUp to 2 hours.\nBetween 8.30 pm and 10.00 pm\nEdited highlights or delayed coverage to start not later than 10.30 pm.\nBetween 10.00 pm and midnight\nUp to 30 minutes.",
