Mr. Winnick: To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what plans he has to meet the chairman and Director General
of the BBC to discuss the future radio broadcasting of the House; and if he will make a statement. [9878]
Mr. Fisher: My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State has no such plans. Under the terms of its agreement with the Secretary of
State, the BBC is required to transmit an impartial day by day account of the proceedings in both Houses of Parliament, but it is
for the BBC to determine the best way in which to meet this obligation. The BBC is carrying out an extensive consultation exercise
about the future direction of Radio 4 and I am sure it will take into account in arriving at its decisions the strong feelings
expressed by Madam Speaker and by hon. Members on both sides of this House about the broadcasting of our proceedings.
