HC Deb 17 January 1983 vol 35 cc74-5W
Mr. Woolmer

asked the Minister for Trade, pursuant to the statement, Official Report, 15 December, c. 453, what is the closing date on which he is prepared to consider representations on the Eady levy and its possible extension to television and video; and with whom he intends to consult on these matters.

Mr. Sproat

I have already consulted most of the major representative bodies but would be willing to receive representations from others with an interest in the future of the Eady levy. There is no formal closing date, but I hope to begin considering my conclusions before too long, and additional representations should be made with this in mind.

Mr. Woolmer

asked the Minister for Trade, purusant to the statement, Official Report, 15 December, c. 453, relating to representations on the Eady levy, and its possible extension to television and video, if he is willing to consider representations for the continued existence of the National Film Finance Corporation.

Yes.
