HC Deb 17 November 1936 vol 317 c1488
41. Major NEVEN-SPENCE

asked the President of the Board of Trade when it is proposed to provide radio directional facilities for shipping in Shetland?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

The Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses have included in their estimates for 1937–38 provision for the establishment of a radio beacon in Shetland. The proposal will be considered by the Board of Trade, along with the other proposals included in the estimates of the three general lighthouse authorities.
