§ Mr. James Dickens (Lewisham, West)On a point of order. May I ask you Mr. Speaker, in view of the unprecedented open revolt by B.B.C. staff as exposed in the correspondence columns of The Times in recent days, whether you have received any request from the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications to make a statement to the House on the very grave position within the Corporation?
§ Mr. SpeakerIf that had been so I would have called the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications to make the statement.
