HC Deb 05 December 1969 vol 792 c394W
Mr. William Edwards

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications whether he will take steps to assist the British Broadcasting Corporation and the Independent Television Authority to establish their own piped television service in those areas where a full reception cannot be given for technical reasons.

Mr. Pentland

No. The provision of piped television on so widespread a scale is not feasible in present circumstances.
