HC Deb 18 June 1963 vol 679 c36W
Mr. Montgomery

asked the President of the Board of Trade what decision he has made about the quota of British films to be shown by exhibitors during the year beginning 1st January, 1964.

Mr. Erroll

Yes. After consulting the Cinematograph Films Council I have decided, in accordance with their advice, to leave the prescribed quota for first feature films at 30 per cent. in the exhibitors' quota year beginning 1st January, 1964. I have also decided, contrary to the Council's advice, to leave the quota for supporting programme at 25 per cent. in that year. No Order to amend the Cinematograph Films (Quotas) Amendment Order, 1950, is therefore required.
