'Homes set for digital' Accreditation Scheme


The award and licence to use the certification mark will be available to those organisations that can demonstrate that they have taken all reasonable steps to be able to guarantee delivery of digital TV services, at least 3 months in advance of switchover in their region, to all homes where the organisation is responsible for the provision, management or maintenance of the aerial system.

In order to do this, they must have published a Switchover Action Plan which describes the organisation’s plans to prepare for digital switchover, including:

Supported by the department for Communities and Local Government, the Scottish Government, the Welsh Assembly Government, the Tenant Services Authority (TSA) and Homes and Communities Agency (HCA), applications for the certification mark “homes set for digital” are welcomed from organisations that have responsibility for the provision of communal TV aerials to residential properties. This could be in the role of developer, managing agent or landlord in either the private or public sectors.

Detailed information about the scheme and criteria for the award is available for download.
