HC Deb 08 May 1984 vol 59 c278W
Mr. Hooson

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will take steps to establish the amount of expenditure on any form of lobbying for future funding which has so far been incurred by Sianel 4 Cymru; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Hurd

The Welsh Fourth Channel Authority's negotiations on annual funding are conducted solely with the IBA. The authority legitimately spends a certain amount of money explaining its functions to interested parties and the public at large, but we see no need for any inquiry.
