HC Deb 13 October 1969 vol 788 c44W
Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications if he intends to increase and extend measures to apprehend evaders of payment of car radio licence fees; and what additional measures he has in mind.

Mr. Stonehouse

On 14th August I announced that, as from 1st April, 1971, radio-only licences, including licences for radios installed in cars, would be abolished. Until then the obligation remains to licence radios and the present measures of enforcement will be fully maintained; but I do not propose to introduce new ones in the interim.
