HC Deb 30 July 1952 vol 504 c1479
38. Lieut.-Colonel Lipton

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General what representations have been made to Her Majesty's Government officially by the Jockey Club on the subject of television programmes; and what his reply was to these representations.

Mr. Gammans

My noble Friend is meeting the stewards of the Jockey Club in the near future.

Lieut.-Colonel Lipton

Has not the hon. Gentleman been told about the discussion on television policy which took place at the recent annual general meeting of the Jockey Club in which the Prime Minister took part? May we know something about those negotiations or discussions, because the activities of the Prime Minister in the Departmental field are always matters of ominous public importance? May I have an answer? Does the hon. Gentleman know anything at all about it?

Mr. Gammans

I have answered the Question on the Order Paper.
