HC Deb 20 May 1977 vol 932 cc308-9W
Mr. Gwynfor Evans

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, in view of the fact that the prevalence of English-language television programmes helps to erode the position of the Welsh language, he will consider the plans for the use of the fourth channel as a national Welsh channel by bringing forward its establishment to an early date.

Mr. John
