Orders of the Day — MARINE, &c., BROADCASTING (OFFENCES) BILL

Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 15 February 1967.

Alert me about debates like this

This Bill will stop the pirates broadcasting around our shores. [HON. MEMBERS: "Will it?"] It will be quite wrong for the House to regard it as just a repressive measure. It is basically constructive and it will help restore the rule of law and enable us to honour our obligations to other European countries. It is for these reasons that I commend the Bill to the House.
