BBC Scottish Farming News

EDM number 797 in 1994-95, proposed by James Wallace on 14/03/1995.

That this House regrets the decision of BBC Radio Scotland to axe the 10 minute daily farming news programme, Scottish Farming News; notes that for more than 50 years, farmers and other interested in agriculture in Scotland have benefited from this informative and professionally presented farming news service; believes that its removal from the airwaves represents a serious departure from the public service broadcasting responsibility of the BBC; and therefore calls upon BBC Scotland to reverse this unwelcome and precipitate decision.

This motion has been signed by a total of 45 MPs.
