§ 25. Mr. H. WILLIAMSasked the Postmaster-General if his attention has been drawn to the proposal that a talk on youth's ideal, by a member of the Independent Labour Party's Guild of Youth, should be broadcast by the Glasgow station of the British Broadcasting Company; and if he will give an assurance that the broadcasting services shall not be used by political organisations except under conditions which give equal opportunities to organisations of every point of view?
§ The POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Sir William Mitchell-Thomson)I understand that the British Broadcasting Company informed the Guild that political matter could not be broadcast; and the proposal was not pursued. As I have already stated on more than one occasion, it is the normal policy to exclude from the broadcasting service all political propaganda.
§ Mr. J. JONESIs that true in the case of Prince of Wales's speeches?
