Is the Prime Minister aware that the Government are guilty of a breach of promise given by the Secretary of State for Scotland on 14th October in a debate covering this subject of a review? Is he aware that that promise has been broken? Is he aware that this is a breach of democracy in permitting a dangerous vacuum with no Ministerial responsibility over the fundamental matter of use of the mass media for political purposes, which is a breach of Mr. Speaker's recommendation?
