§ Professor Savoryasked the Minister of Information whether he is aware of the number of students of Italian in Great Britain and Ireland who enjoyed the Italian broadcasts from London, but, as they are now with one or two exceptions on short wave lengths, will he instruct the British Broadcasting Corporation to restore the service on the medium wave length, as it is impossible to obtain short wave lengths on the majority of sets used in this country?
§ Mr. BrackenNo, Sir. I cannot ask the B.B.C. to vary the arrangements they have made for securing the best possible reception in Italy of their Italian broadcasts. There are still three programmes a day on the medium waves which can be heard by listeners at home.
