HC Deb 21 October 2003 vol 411 c532W
Bob Russell

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport if she will publish the timetable for the ending of the analogue system of television transmission. [132798]

Mr. Caborn

The Digital TV Action Plan sets out a series of actions to ensure that the criteria set for switchover are met so the Government can, if we choose, take the decision to proceed to full switchover by ordering the switching off by 2010 of analogue terrestrial transmissions. Details of the switchover criteria are contained in the Action Plan, which can be found on the website: www.digitaltelevision.gov.uk
