HC Deb 24 June 1975 vol 894 cc121-2W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he will implement the recommendation of the Crawford Committee relative to the establishment of a Welsh language television channel; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Alexander W. Lyon

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer my right hon. Friend gave to a Question from my hon. Friend the Member for Brecon and Radnor (Mr. Roderick) on 21st November 1974—[Vol. 881. c.475.] —when he said that the recommendation of the Crawford Committee relative to the establishment of a Welsh language television channel was to be remitted to a working party. The report of this working party is expected shortly. We hope to make a statement as soon as there has been an opportunity to study the working party's findings.
