§ Mr. Rowlandasked the Postmaster-General, on how many wavelengths broadcasts are transmitted from Shivering Sands Tower; for which wavelengths licences to broadcast have been granted and have not been granted; what action has been taken against any broadcaster operating on a wavelength for which no licence has been granted; and when it is intended to take such action.
§ Mr. BennI am informed that broadcasts are transmitted from Shivering Sands Tower on a wavelength of 290 metres. No licence for broadcasting from that Tower has been granted. Enquiries are being pursued. Meanwhile it is right that stations now broadcasting on unauthorised wavelengths should have time to consider their position in the light of the statement I made on 8th December.
