HC Deb 06 December 1982 vol 33 c339W
Mr. Murphy

asked the Secretary of State for the Home-Department if he will consider making channel 9 of the citizens band radio solely for the use of emergency messages.

Mr. Raison

The CB code of practice already recommends that channel 9 should be used only for emergencies and assistance. We are not convinced that the introduction of a mandatory restriction would be any more effective.
