HC Deb 31 March 1952 vol 498 c97W
84. Mr. K. Thompson

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will move for the appointment of a Select Committee to consider and make recommendations on the conditions of copyright which should attach to sound and television broadcasts.

Mr. H. Strauss

No. The question of what changes are desirable in the law of copyright is already being considered by a committee set up in April, 1951, by the then President of the Board of Trade. I understand that the committee have taken evidence on the matter to which my hon. Friend refers.
