HC Deb 12 December 1994 vol 251 c497W
24. Mr. Gordon Prentice

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage if he will take powers to ensure that television viewers can receive transmissions from the appropriate regional ITV and BBC stations.

Mr. Dorrell

No. It is for the broadcasters to determine their own transmission arrangements in the light of their resources and within the constraints of frequency availability and engineering feasibility.
