HC Deb 23 November 1936 vol 318 c20
33. Mr. R. C. MORRISON

asked the Postmaster-General whether he will ascertain whether the British Broadcasting Corporation proposes to invite Members of Parliament to visit Alexandra Palace television station at an early date?

Major TRYON

I am informed by the British Broadcasting Corporation that, with the approval of Mr. Speaker, they are already studying the possibility of installing television receivers for a limited period in a Committee Room of this House. Such an arrangement is felt likely to be of more general interest to Members than organised visits to the transmitting station at the Alexandra Palace. If, however, any individual Member is anxious to visit the Alexandra Palace meantime, I understand that the British Broadcasting Corporation will be glad to arrange a private visit for him.
