HC Deb 08 July 1937 vol 326 c589W
Mr. Petherick

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the Government has yet reached a decision regarding the establishment of a broadcasting station in Cyprus?

Mr. Ormsby-Gore

As I informed my hon. Friend on 16th March, what the Government have under consideration is the question of the issue of broadcasts in languages other than English. The possibility of utilising Cyprus in this connection is not being overlooked; but the whole question raises a number of difficult technical and other considerations, which require examination. I can give no indication as to when a decision will be reached.
