HC Deb 20 October 1954 vol 531 cc178-9W
98. Mr. C. Hughes

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General what steps are being taken to improve the reception in Wales of the Welsh Home Service of the British Broadcasting Corporation.

Mr. Gammans

The present poor reception of the Welsh Home Service is, as the hon. Member knows, mainly due to interference from a station in the Soviet zone of Germany. The matter is in the hands of our High Commissioner at Bonn and I hope Members will not press me further on the subject at the moment. I can assure the hon. Member that everything possible is being done to improve the position.
