§ Captain Pluggeasked the Minister of Information what broadcasts are sent 1373W daily by the British Broadcasting Corporation to the inhabitants of Jugoslavia; and whether these will now be intensified, in view of the arrival in this country of the King of Jugoslavia?
Mr. CooperFour fifteen-minute news bulletins in Serbo-Croat and one in Slovene are broadcast each day for listeners in Jugoslavia. In addition daily1374W broadcasts are made in Serbo-Croat from Cairo. This represents a larger proportion of broadcasting time than is given to other Balkan countries, and it is not therefore, proposed to increase the number or length of the Bulletins. Full advantage is however being taken of the presence in London of the King of Jugoslavia and the Jugoslav Government to increase the authority and interest of the broadcasts.
