Mr. Temple Morrisasked the Minister of Information how far recent reports indicate satisfaction in Wales with the British Broadcasting Corporation broadcasts in Welsh?
§ Mr. BrackenReports indicate a considerable measure of satisfaction with the B.B.C.'s broadcasts in Welsh, though it is understood that Welsh listeners would like more time to be allotted for this purpose. I am informed by the B.B.C. that while they appreciate and sympathise with this desire it is not possible, on account of the pressure on broadcasting time, to increase the time now devoted to programmes in Welsh.
