ITV Play has been cleared in ITV's output-wide review of its premium rate participation TV offerings.
The channel was taken off air last week along with all other premium rate interactive services on ITV's channels while an independent review took place after allegations of irregularities in some programmes.
"Following the return of the interactive services in Dancing on Ice last Saturday, ITV can confirm that Deloitte have performed the first stage of their review of the interactive processes and procedures contained within This Morning and ITV Play programming on ITV1," ITV said in a statement this morning. "On the basis of the information available, including Deloitte's findings, ITV is satisfied that the both are being operated in accordance with the Icstis and Ofcom codes. As part of our complete commitment to ongoing compliance, ITV will continue to observe the operation of interactive services with Deloitte's assistance."
ITV told DS this afternoon that until further notice, ITV Play will only transmit during ITV1 simulcast hours.
