§ Mr. Robin CookTo ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will list the fees charged to short-wave radio users for detection of sources of interference from illegal radio operators, total revenue from such fees in the most recent convenient year, and the extent to which such fees cover the cost of such detection.
§ Mr. HeseltineNo separate fee is charged for the detection of illegal radio operation. The cost of this work is covered in the licence fees charged to licensed users.
