23. Mr. Riddick

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what information he has received on the steps taken by the Independent Broadcasting Authority in relation to Thames Television's programme "Death on the Rock".

Mr. Renton

The board of Thames Television has appointed two independent assessors to inquire into the making of the programme "Death on the Rock". The IBA, as the regulatory authority for the ITV companies, will consider the report from Thames as soon as it becomes available, and decide whether any action is necessary.
