The BBC and S4C will, from 2019, co-locate and share technical broadcasting services at the new BBC Broadcasting Centre in Cardiff.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2013 the BBC has been responsible for providing, from the licence fee, most of the public funding for S4C. This arrangement will continue until the end of the current Royal Charter in 2028.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BBC and S4C are, and will continue to be, independent - editorially and operationally - and have separate governance structures. However, the formal Partnership, Funding and Accountability Agreement between the broadcasters sets out at a high level the ways in which the BBC and S4C will work in together to deliver services for the benefit of Welsh-speaking audiences.\u003c/p\u003e","contentItem":{"contentComponent":{"result":{"$":{"xmlns":"https://web.archive.org/web/20190610121523/https://production.bbc.co.uk/isite2/contentreader/xml/result"},"metadata":{"modifiedDateTime":"2019-03-27T16:56:34.926879Z","creationDateTime":"2019-03-27T13:54:00.115197Z","type":"component-documents","fileId":"documents-bbcs4c-partnership-funding-and-accountability-agreement-130319104210","guid":"437dc5e2-ab9a-408c-bc67-3f9b4386b258"},"document":{"form":{"$":{"xmlns":"https://web.archive.org/web/20190610121523/https://production.bbc.co.uk/isite2/project/ipages-inside-the-bbc/component-documents"},"metadata":{"metadataId":"documents-bbcs4c-partnership-funding-and-accountability-agreement-130319104210"},"content":{"title":"BBC/S4C
