A BBC spokesman said that “he takes his obligations of competition law seriously.”
“The BBC was involved in three of the 15 infractions identified by the CMA and admitted responsibility for these as soon as possible,” he added.
“We value independent workers with whom we work, both in sport and in the BBC, and we will continue working hard with the independent community to invest and develop talent.”
A spokeswoman for Group BT also said that the company took its “seriously” obligations, “accepted the conclusions” of the investigation and “agreed to solve this case.”
“We remain committed to ensuring that our obligations are integrated at all levels of our business and we have taken a series of measures to strengthen our competition and compliance initiatives.”
An ITV statement said: “ITV is totally committed to complying with the Law of Competition and Cooperated with the CMA throughout his investigation.
“In the light of the CMA investigation, we have implemented more compliance measures of the Improved Competition Law throughout the business.”
IMG said in a statement that the matter “has now been resolved” and “has taken all the necessary measures to address any prior compliance problem.”
On Friday, the CMA also closed a similar investigation into non -sports television productions, with the BBC, ITV, Hartswood Films, Hat Trick Productions, Red Planet Pictures, Sister Pictures and Tiger Aspect Productions under the center of attention.
The regulator said he had not reached a decision on whether they had involved in anti -competitive practices.
