The BBC Board said in response to the review: "It is worth noting, at the outset, that the report finds there was no widespread or significant BBC knowledge of allegations or concerns about predatory sexual behaviour by Mr Westwood.
The BBC Board has apologised after a review into what the broadcaster knew about concerns over former Radio 1 DJ Tim Westwood’s conduct found it had “missed opportunities that might have led to action”.
"Beyond assessing any alleged criminality, which is a matter for the police, it is clear there were times where the BBC, on learning about concerns regarding Mr Westwood's behaviour, did not take adequate action.
The BBC Board further said they "take this opportunity to apologise on behalf of the entire BBC to anyone impacted by what the review has found.
The publication of the report, which saw barrister Gemma White KC commissioned in 2022 by the BBC Board to examine what was known about Westwood's alleged conduct during his time at the corporation, has been delayed at various points.
