§ 35. Mr. Brewisasked the Postmaster-General what is the approximate area of Scotland that is not covered by B.B.C.1 transmitters serving Scotland; and how this compares with the total area of Scotland.
§ Mr. Joseph SlaterThe B.B.C. tells me that it estimates that about 40 per cent. of Scotland lies outside the coverage area of B.B.C.1 transmissions. They add, however, that this area contains only 2.4 per cent. of the population.
