HC Deb 25 October 1982 vol 29 c289W
29. Mr. Campbell-Savours

asked the Secretary of State for Industry when Her Majesty's Government expect to reach a conclusion about proposals contained in the ITAP report on cabling; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Kenneth Baker:

Following receipt of the ITAP report on cabling and the report of the inquiry into cable expansion and broadcasting policy, the Government are actively considering their policy towards wideband cable systems. They hope to be in a position to make a statement on this before the end of 1982.
