HC Deb 28 November 1961 vol 650 cc34-5W
72. Mr. Awbery

asked the Postmaster-General if he has studied the representations he has received from the Bristol Broadcasting Society, a copy of which has been sent to him by the hon. Member for Bristol, Central, regarding the difficulties encountered by this body, which is dependent on voluntary funds. in providing sports and other broadcasts to hospitals, following his decision to increase telephone charges; and what reply he has sent.

Mr. Bevins

Yes. As regards the level of charges, I am sorry I cannot go beyond what I said in my reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Acton (Mr. Holland) on 6th November. The changes I then announced will reduce the amount of the increase by about £200 a year. I am replying to the hon. Member's letter in detail today.
