Independent Radio Programmes For Children

EDM number 2607 in 2005-06, proposed by Don Foster on 19/07/2006.

That this House notes that the Broadcasting Act requires children's programmes to be included in independent television schedules, but that no such protection exists for independent radio; and calls on the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport to propose legislation to protect children's rights and needs in relation to independent UK radio.

This motion has been signed by a total of 42 MPs.
