Is there a rule...

daibhidc...that Public Information Films can't directly advertise websites? Not even Official Government Websites that are part of the same awareness campaign?
I've noticed two recently, one about health and one about road safety, that end with the suggestion you do a websearch on their slogans. Since the top result on both is the site they presumably want you to read (http://www.nhs.uk/Change4Life and http://talesoftheroad.direct.gov.uk), I can't understand why they don't just put the addy in the ad, unless there's a rule saying they can't. And even then, since their sites are the top result, and the Google Sponsored Link, doesn't it amount to the same thing?
