HC Deb 08 November 1937 vol 328 c1420W
Mr. White

asked the Postmaster-General whether a decision has been reached as to the establishment of a Broadcast Relay Station at Southampton; and if it is proposed to acquire any existing plant for this purpose?

Major Tryon

The question of the establishment by the Post Office of an experimental Broadcast Relay Service at Southampton is under consideration, but the arrangements have not yet been completed. No such service is at present operated in the area in which the proposed experiment would be conducted, and the question of acquiring existing plant does not, therefore, arise
