Cuts In BBC Local Radio Services

EDM number 645 in 1994-95, proposed by Jim Cunningham on 20/02/1995.

That this House notes the BBC proposals for cuts in local radio services in the Coventry and Warwickshire broadcasting area, known as CWR radio; notes with alarm the catastrophic effect these cuts will have on these communities, and the jobs of highly skilled staff employed by CWR; expresses its dismay at the lack of consultation with these communities and its representatives given that these proposed cuts are part of a national programme of reorganisation and cuts; calls on the Secretary of State for National Heritage to intervene, initiate adequate funding and to convene as a matter of urgency, a meeting between the BBC and representatives of CWR and the community in order to seek ways and means of continuing this worthwhile community-based service; and demands the withdrawal of the cuts.

This motion has been signed by a total of 121 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
