HC Deb 24 May 1979 vol 967 cc230-1W
Mr. Grimond

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will now reconsider the decision not to give a prefix to the call sign of holders of radio amateur licences in Shetland.

Mr. Raison

I am afraid it would not be possible to assign a special prefix to the call signs of radio amateur operators in Shetland without establishing a precedent which would have no radio regulatory or other justification.
