HC Deb 26 July 1962 vol 663 cc182-3W
72. Mr. Oram

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will introduce legislation to ensure that all people who use Footbal League fixture lists for the purposes of their betting business or for the promotion of football pools shall be required to make a financial contribution for the benefit of Association Football.

Mr. Brooke

No. I understand that the reproduction of the Football League's fixture lists is covered by copyright law. I do not consider that a compulsory levy for the benefit of football would be justified.
