§ Mr. Waddingtonasked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications whether steps are to be taken to improve very high frequency reception in the Nelson and Colne Parliamentary Division so as to ensure that when the schools radio programmes are broadcast on very high frequency only they will be receivable in the division.
§ Mr. PentlandThe improvement of reception of their services is primarily the responsibility of the B.B.C. They say that reception of their V.H.F. transmissions of Radio 4, which carries the schools programmes, is satisfactory in 257W Nelson and Colne if efficient sets and aerials are used.
