HC Deb 12 May 1965 vol 712 cc59-60W
56. Mr. Ensor

asked the Postmaster-General what further consideration he has given to the future of the pay-television experiment, in view of the fact that all the licensed companies except one have now declared their intention not to proceed.

Mr. Benn

Pay-television is one of the subjects under consideration in the Government's review of broadcasting policy; and, as I have already said, this review is proceeding. The recent decision by two of the companies to withdraw from the experiment will, of course, be a factor for consideration.
