HC Deb 17 June 1964 vol 696 c200W
Mr. Thorpe

asked the Postmaster-General what proposals he has made to the International Telecommunication Union at Geneva to ensure that the allocation of frequencies under radio regulations is observed by those stations broadcasting principally to the United Kingdom.

Mr. Bevins

I have made no proposals. Under the Radio Regulations of the International Telecommunication Union all radio transmitting stations have to be authorised by governments, who are responsible for ensuring that the stations use radio frequencies properly. Pirate broadcasters operate outside international agreements.
