HC Deb 24 July 1968 vol 769 cc150-1W
Mr. Judd

asked the Postmaster General what further plans there are for the extension of the Independent Television Authority's service on very-high-frequency.

Mr. Stonehouse

I have now approved in principle the building by the I.T.A. of further relay stations at Newhaven, Aviemore and Ballycastle. All three are expected to open during 1969. Together, these stations should bring independent television to some 36,000 people; and should improve reception for a further 36,000.
