To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what estimate she has made of the proportion of the population of East Sussex who are unable to receive BBC Freeview services. [140963]

We understand from the BBC that according to figures calculated in March this year, 76.6 per cent. of East Sussex households are currently unable to receive BBC Freeview services, although this figure does not include Brighton or Hove. Further details are available from the BBC's Freeview website at www.freeview.co.uk.
