Televising Of Select And Standing Committees

EDM number 1892 in 1992-93, proposed by Ray Powell on 28/04/1993.

That this House shares the concern reported in The House Magazine of 19th April over the way the televising of Select and Standing Committees can be something of a lottery because of a haphazard pricing structure which can result in broadcasting organisations being asked to pay up to ú2,000 for the television feed of a two-and-a-half-hour Committee hearings; believes that Committee hearings which are of interest on editorial grounds should not go unrecorded soley because of cost; and calls on the Lord President of the Council and the Broadcasting Select Committee to have discussions with the independent contractor, CCT Productions Ltd., so as to agree a pricing structure which meets the needs of the smaller regional companies and programmes as well as those of the national news networks.

This motion has been signed by a total of 47 MPs.
