HC Deb 20 October 1971 vol 823 c118W
23. Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications what increase there will be in staff, temporary or permanent, in his Department, as a result of the introduction of commercial radio.

Mr. Chataway

I have made three temporary appointments so far and may need to make a further five or six. It is too soon to say whether any increase in permanent staff will be required but this would, in any case, not exceed two or three posts.
