B.B.C.2 (Wales)

HC Deb 12 April 1967 vol 744 cc214-5W

Mr. Emlyn Hooson

asked the Postmaster-General when people living in Wales will be able to receive B.B.C.2.

Mr. Joseph Slater

This is a matter in the first place for the B.B.C. They point out that B.B.C.2 is already available to viewers in Wales within the reception areas of the Wenvoe and Winter Hill transmitters; and estimate that, by the end of the year, when colour will have been introduced into the service, B.B.C.2 will be available to nearly half the population of Wales.
