§ 26. Mr. C. R. Hobsonasked the Assistant Postmaster-General when regulations under the Wireless Telegraphy Act will be made to deal with interference to television reception from petrol-driven vehicles.
§ Mr. GammansNo decision has yet been reached. For new vehicles it is essential before making regulations to be sure that supplies of suppressors will be available to manufacturers. As regards vehicles already on the road, we wish to proceed as far as possible by voluntary methods.
§ Mr. HobsonDo I understand now that the only reason why interference from these vehicles cannot be suppressed is due to the shortage of suppressors?
§ Mr. GammansThat is in respect of new vehicles.
