The BBC is funded by public money, so they get the opportunity to do stuff without being pushed about by commercial interests - for this reason they are already expected to include programming that is for the benefit of society and the public.
Just so you know, public money isn't given solely to the BBC. Channel 4 and ITV will receive taxpayer's money for providing programming for the benefit of society as well. As far as I know, a lot of documentaries are given funding in this guise.
So it's not just the BBC that have a non-commercial responsibility to the public.
