§ 31. Mr. Joseph Reevesasked the Assistant Postmaster-General whether it is proposed to make an announcement in the very near future on the steps to be taken to enable the British Broadcasting Corporation to function on the expiration of its Charter and licences at the end of 1951.
§ Mr. GammansI would refer the hon. Member to the answer given by my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister on 12th November.
§ Mr. ReevesIn view of the fact that Parliament will be rising very soon, surely it is important that we should have a statement almost immediately?
§ Mr. GammansWe realise the necessity of making a statement on this matter as soon as possible.
