Clause 1 - The Office of Communications
Office of Communications Bill [Lords]
2:30 pm

Mr Michael Fabricant (Lichfield, Conservative)
I expounded on the subject this morning, Mr. Gale, so I shall not try your or the Committee's patience now.
Because of the language and the peculiar conditions in rural Wales compared to those in rural England-the spread of internet provision was mentioned this morning-representatives from Wales and to lesser extent Scotland are needed on the authority. If the Minister does not support the making of provision for that, many people in Pontypridd will write to him tomorrow asking why he takes an opposing view.
