WOMAN'S HOUR

EDM number 149 in 1990-91, proposed by Audrey Wise on 03/12/1990.

That this House deplores the proposal by Radio 4's Controller to axe Woman's Hour in the afternoon after 44 successful years; is aware that it has served women during all this time and has a loyal one million strong audience; rejects the poor substitute of a mid-morning magazine programme and calls on Radio 4 to retain Woman's Hour in its present form and in its current slot.

This motion has been signed by a total of 62 MPs.
