HC Deb 08 December 1964 vol 703 cc171-2W
Mr. Raymond Gower

asked the Postmaster-General what steps will be taken to improve television reception in parts of Wales where British Broadcasting Corporation television programmes cannot be received clearly at present; and what steps will be taken to enable viewers in the central area of Wales to receive the independent television programmes of T.W.W. Ltd.

Mr. Benn

I would ask the hon. Member to await the announcement, which I hope to make shortly, about the B.B.C.'s plan for improving television reception and coverage. As to the second part of the Question, this is a matter, in the first place, for the Independent Television Authority. I have not received any proposals from them for serving central Wales.
