The group behind the Golden Globe Awards has said it is committed to immediate “transformational change” and reforms amid heightened scrutiny around its membership and practices.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) said in a statement that it would focus on adding black and other under-represented members to its organisation in addition to increasing transparency around its operations.
