HC Deb 25 January 1971 vol 810 c25W
89. Mr. Stratton Mills

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications if he will revise the television levy.

Mr. Chataway

The Independent Television Authority have made representations to me for a reduction in the levy on independent television. I am still studying their case in the light of the findings in the Report of the National Board for Prices and Incomes on the Costs and Revenues of the independent television companies, but I am not yet able to say what the outcome will be.
