HC Deb 13 February 1969 vol 777 c370W
78 and 79. Mr. Marples

asked the Postmaster-General (1) whether he has approved the use of the frequency 1484 kHz (202 metres) for low-powered local broadcasting in the United Kingdom;

(2) whether he now proposes to implement the findings of the European Broadcasting Convention of Copenhagen (1948), to which the United Kingdom was a signatory, and which designated the frequency of 1484 kHz (202 metres) as an international common frequency.

Mr. Stonehouse

Seven low-power stations using the frequency have been authorised. Thus, advantage has been taken of the provision, contained in the plan annexed to the European Broadcasting Convention, 1948, for its use as an international frequency.
