HC Deb 22 October 1969 vol 788 c247W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity whether she is aware of the growing practice of independent television companies of paying high fees for broadcasts similar to those for which the B.B.C. have paid lower fees; whether this is within the Government's Wages, Prices and Incomes policy; whether she will refer it to the Prices and Incomes Board; and whether she will make a statement.

Mr. Harold Walker

I am not aware of any general practice of the kind mentioned by my hon. Friend.
