HC Deb 26 February 1968 vol 759 c280W
Mr. Stratton Mills

asked the Postmaster-General if he will list the Independent Television Authority transmitters costing £0.2 million which are not now to be constructed in 1968–69, having regard to the Government announcement of 21st December, 1967.

Mr. Edward Short

The reduction of £0.2 million in the estimated expenditure during 1968–69 by the I.T.A. on transmitters does not affect those planned to open in that year. The effect will be to delay the construction programme generally in subsequent years.
