HC Deb 05 April 1950 vol 473 c158W
106. Mr. Erroll

asked the Postmaster-General if he is prepared to hire his television transmitters and studios to private concerns for television broadcasts during periods when the British Broadcasting, Corporation television programme is not being broadcast.

Mr. Ness Edwards

No, as this would be contrary to the recommendation of the Hankey Committee, which was accepted by the Government, that the British Broadcasting Corporation should operate the television service.
