U.K. broadcaster the BBC has temporarily put on hold a restructuring plan that would have axed 450 jobs in its news division and saved the corporation £80 million ($94 million) by 2022.
The restructuring plan was announced in January. On Wednesday, BBC director general Tony Hall informed staff that this has been paused for now.
The corporation is now focusing on timely delivery of coronavirus news and related programming to its audience.
