§ 37. Mr. Grimondasked the Postmaster General what steps are being taken to improve the present reception apart from intentions to develop other television networks in Shetland.
§ Mr. Joseph SlaterThe improvement of television reception is the responsibility of the B.B.C. They tell me that the service in the Shetlands has been affected by occasional failures in the electric power supply to the transmitters; and that they are considering what might be done to remedy this. I am told that, otherwise, reception is generally satisfactory.
