HC Deb 23 November 1936 vol 318 cc19-20
30. Mr. DINGLE FOOT

asked the Postmaster-General whether he has considered the copy sent him of proposals for developing educational broadcasting entitled "Broadcasting and Education," by J. Howard Whitehouse, a former Member of this House; and whether he will give the proposals his consideration?

The POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Major Tryon)

I have received a copy of the book; but the proposals it contains are primarily for consideration by the British Broadcasting Corporation and the education authorities.

Sir PATRICK HANNON

Can the right hon. and gallant Gentleman say that representations of this kind are receiving the serious consideration of the British Broadcasting Corporation?

Major TRYON

Yes, Sir. I can say that this book is being considered by the British Broadcasting Corporation and by the Central Council for School Broadcasting.
