HC Deb 29 November 1937 vol 329 c1692
53. Mr. Day

asked the Postmaster-General whether any application has been made to the Post Office for a broadcasting licence for a station that broadcasts daily between 12 and 1 o'clock with a woman announcer and the call sign Alderney, Channel Islands, speaking; and whether any permission has been granted for this station to operate under an amateur waveband?

Major Tryon

I have received no application for a licence for a broadcasting station in the Island of Alderney and have granted no permission for such a station to be operated in any wave-band. Inquiries are being made regarding the transmissions referred to. When I have fuller information, I will consider what action should be taken in the matter.

Mr. Day

Will he also make inquiries whether they have any local permits to broadcast music and gramophone records?

Major Tryon

The whole matter will be inquired into.
