HC Deb 16 May 1973 vol 856 c344W
Mr. Kilfedder

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications if he will consider requesting payment from the Eire Government for BBC television programmes, which are received along the east coast and the border areas of the Republic of Eire.

Sir J. Eden

No. We have no right to ask for any payments for the direct reception of these transmissions which are not designed for reception outside the United Kingdom.
