§ Mr. Brian Parkynasked the Postmaster-General how many successful prosecutions took place in Bedford against persons not holding a television or wireless licence during the last 12-month period for which records are available; and how this compares with the average for the country as a whole.
§ Mr. Edward ShortDuring the year ended 31st March, 1966, 43 successful prosecutions were undertaken in the Bedford Head Post Office area. As Head Post Office areas vary greatly in size and character the average per area would not be meaningful as a basis for comparison.
