§ Mr. James Johnsonasked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications what is the membership of the Humberside Radio Council; and when it proposes to hold its inaugural meeting.
§ Mr. ChatawayAs I told the hon. Member for Kingston upon Hull, North (Mr. McNamara) on 6th July, I am considering the future of the B.B.C.'s plans for local radio including the station planned for Humberside. Meanwhile there would be no point in naming a local radio council. The timing of local radio council meetings is entirely a matter for the councils.—[Vol. 803, c. 311.]
